Synonymy of Candida methylica with Candida boidinii and of Candida methanolophaga with Candida succiphila [PDF]
Some Candida species which can use methanol as a sole carbon source were studied by performing chemotaxonomic tests; we determined the ubiquinone systems of these organisms, their DNA base compositions, their electrophoretic karyotypes, and their DNA relatedness values.

CO(2) acts as a signalling molecule in populations of the fungal pathogen Candida albicans. [PDF]
When colonising host-niches or non-animated medical devices, individual cells of the fungal pathogen Candida albicans expand into significant biomasses. Here we show that within such biomasses, fungal metabolically generated CO(2) acts as a communication

Degradation of human kininogens with the release of kinin peptides by extracellular proteinases of Candida spp. [PDF]
The secretion of proteolytic enzymes by pathogenic microorganisms is one of the most successful strategies used by pathogens to colonize and infect the host organism.

Effect of Piper betle and Brucea javanica on the Differential Expression of Hyphal Wall Protein (HWP1) in Non-Candida albicans Candida (NCAC) Species [PDF]
The study aimed to identify the HWP1 gene in non-Candida albicans Candida species and the differential expression of HWP1 following treatment with Piper betle and Brucea javanica aqueous extracts.

Among the millions of species in the fungal kingdom, fewer than 300 cause disease in humans, compared to the tens of thousands that cause disease in plants, insects, and ectothermic vertebrates. While the number of 'pathogenic' species is relatively small, fungal infections remain one of the leading threats to human health.

De novo sequence assembly of Albugo candida reveals a small genome relative to other biotrophic oomycetes [PDF]
Background: Albugo candida is a biotrophic oomycete that parasitizes various species of Brassicaceae, causing a disease (white blister rust) with remarkable convergence in behaviour to unrelated rusts of basidiomycete fungi.

Comparative ecotoxicity of three polluted industrial soils for the Collembola Folsomia candida [PDF]
We tried to quantify the ecotoxicity of three industrial soil samples contaminated by different metals, using the Collembolan Folsomia candida as a biological model and mortality, growth and reproduction as parameters.

Candida albicans repetitive elements display epigenetic diversity and plasticity [PDF]
Transcriptionally silent heterochromatin is associated with repetitive DNA. It is poorly understood whether and how heterochromatin differs between different organisms and whether its structure can be remodelled in response to environmental signals. Here,

Functional Characterization of the Small Heat Shock Protein Hsp12p from Candida albicans [PDF]
Hsp12p is considered to be a small heat shock protein and conserved among fungal species. To investigate the expression of this heat shock protein in the fungal pathogen Candida albicans we developed an anti-CaHsp12p antibody.
