Secretion of the fungal toxin candidalysin is dependent on conserved precursor peptide sequences

Nature Microbiology
The opportunistic fungal pathogen Candida albicans damages host cells via its peptide toxin, candidalysin. Before secretion, candidalysin is embedded in a precursor protein, Ece1, which consists of a signal peptide, the precursor of candidalysin and seven non-candidalysin Ece1 peptides (NCEPs), and is found to be conserved in clinical isolates. Here we

Heparin interacts with candidalysin and neutralizes its cytotoxicity to oral epithelial cells.

Journal of Oral Biosciences, 2023
Candidalysin is a peptide toxin produced by Candida albicans that causes damage to epithelial cells by destabilizing the plasma membrane. This study aimed to evaluate heparin's ability to neutralize candidalysin and protect epithelial cells from lysis.The study was conducted using a human oral epithelial cell line and synthetic candidalysin.

Candidalysin: discovery and function in Candida albicans infections

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Microbiology, 2019
Candidalysin is a cytolytic peptide toxin secreted by the invasive form of the human pathogenic fungus, Candida albicans. Candidalysin is critical for mucosal and systemic infections and is a key driver of host cell activation, neutrophil recruitment and Type 17 immunity.

Candidalysin: An unlikely aide for fungal gut commensalism.

Cell Host & Microbe
Fungi colonize the mammalian gastrointestinal (GI) tract and can adopt both commensal and opportunistic lifestyles. In a recent issue of Nature, Liang et al. unraveled the complex interplay between Candida morphotypes and the gut bacterial microbiota and described a key role for candidalysin in gut colonization.1.
