The Candida albicans MYO5 gene encodes myosin I, a protein required for the formation of germ tubes and true hyphae. Because the polarized growth of opaque-phase cells in response to pheromone results in mating projections that can resemble germ tubes, we examined the role of Myo5p in this process. We localized green fluorescent protein (GFP)-tagged Myo5p in opaque-phase cells of C. albicans du...

In this study, the effects of the color of different post-core materials and different colored cements on the color and esthetic of all-ceramic restorations were investigated. Three groups of post-cores (ceramic, Cr-Ni and Cr-Ni + opaque), one sample per each group, were prepared as discs 14 ± 0.05 mm in diameter and 1.5 ± 0.05 mm in thickness. A total of 40 cement samples, 10 per each group (o...

The majority of strains of Candida albicans can switch frequently and reversibly between two or more general phenotypes, a process now considered a putative virulence factor in this species. Candida albicans WO-1 switches frequently and reversibly between a white and an opaque phase, and this phenotypic transition is accompanied by the differential expression of white-phase-specific and opaque-...

Sequence-specific DNA-binding proteins are among the most important classes of gene regulatory proteins, controlling changes in transcription that underlie many aspects of biology. In this work, we identify a transcriptional regulator from the human fungal pathogen Candida albicans that binds DNA specifically but has no detectable homology with any previously described DNA- or RNA-binding prote...
