Activated Protein Kinase: Conservation of a Three-Kinase Module From Yeast to Human …

Like other microorganisms, free-living Candida albicans is mainly present in a three-
dimensional multicellular structure, which is called a biofilm, rather than in a planktonic form …

Cytolytic proteins and peptide toxins are classical virulence factors of several bacterial
pathogens which disrupt epithelial barrier function, damage cells and activate or modulate …

Candida albicans is an opportunistic fungal pathogen that is found in the normal
gastrointestinal flora of most healthy humans. However, under certain environmental …

Echinocandins are a new generation of novel antifungal agent that inhibit cell wall β (1, 3)-
glucan synthesis and are normally cidal for the human pathogen Candida albicans …

We have recently presented a molecular model of the cell wall of Saccharomyces
cerevisiae. Here we discuss the evidence that a similar model is also valid for Candida …

Candida albicans is a major fungal pathogen of humans. This yeast is carried by many
individuals as a harmless commensal, but when immune defences are perturbed it causes …

In eukaryotic cells, a family of serine/threonine protein kinases known as mitogen-activated
protein (MAP) kinases (MAPKs) is involved in the transduction of a variety of extracellular …

MAP kinases in eukaryotic cells are well known for transducing a variety of extracellular
signals to regulate cell growth and differentiation. Recently, MAP kinases homologous to the …

Chitin is an essential component of the fungal cell wall and its synthesis is under tight spatial
and temporal regulation. The fungal human pathogen Candida albicans has a four member …
