Candida albicans adheres to host tissue and then proliferates in order to establish a commensal as well as a pathogenic state. Specific adherence to proteins is provided by several surface adhesins of Candida. Two well-studied proteins, Als1p and Als

Tandem repeat (TR) regions are common in yeast adhesins, but their structures are unknown, and their activities are poorly understood. TR regions in Candida albicans Als proteins are conserved glycosylated 36-residue sequences with cell-cell aggregat

AimThe significance of finding Candida species in heart blood cultures obtained at postmortem examination has never been studied. This article describes the findings of autopsy patients with postmortem candidaemia and it compares them with findings i

Elucidating the molecular mechanisms behind the strength and mechanics of cell adhesion proteins is of central importance in cell biology and offers exciting avenues for the identification of potential drug targets. Here we use single-molecule force

Candida species are the 4th most common cause of nosocomial bloodstream infections in North America. It is not widely appreciated, however, that many of these infections are polymicrobial, that is, that bacteria and occasionally more than 1 species o

Commensal and pathogenic states of Candida albicans depend on cell surface-expressed adhesins, including those of the Als family. Mature Als proteins consist of a 300-residue N-terminal region predicted to have an immunoglobulin (Ig)-like fold, a 104

Candida albicans maintains both commensal and pathogenic states in humans. Both states are dependent on cell surface-expressed adhesins, including those of the Als family. Heterologous expression of Als5p at the surface of Saccharomyces cerevisiae re

Candida albicans displays a high degree of specificity in selecting and adhering to targets in vivo. The features of target recognition are poorly understood and likely to involve more than the mere chemical composition of the ligand. Using an adhere

Saccharomyces cerevisiae transformed with Candida albicans ALA1/ALS5 exhibits adherence properties similar to C. albicans. Adherence of the fungi to immobilized proteins involves hydrogen bonds, is stable to shear forces, and is resistant to competit

Candida albicans maintains a commensal relationship with human hosts, probably by adhering to mucosal tissue in a variety of physiological conditions. We show that adherence due to the C. albicans gene ALA1 when transformed into Saccharomyces cerevis
