Farnesol inhibits translation to limit growth and filamentation in C. albicans and S. cerevisiae [PDF]
, 2017 Candida albicans is a polymorphic yeast where the capacity to switch between yeast and filamentous growth is critical for pathogenicity. Farnesol is a quorum-sensing sesquiterpene alcohol that, via regulation of specific signalling and transcription ...

The quorum-sensing molecules farnesol/homoserine lactone and dodecanol operate via distinct modes of action in Candida albicans [PDF]
, 2011 Living as a commensal, Candida albicans must adapt and respond to environmental cues generated by the mammalian host and by microbes comprising the natural flora. These signals have opposing effects on C.

Now Playing: Farnesol in the Biofilm
Chemistry & Biology, 2014 The evolutionary pathway of specialized metabolism often takes unexpected, perplexing turns. In this issue of Chemistry & Biology, Feng and coworkers provide evidence for a unique phosphatase whose enzymatic product plays a critical role in biofilm formation in Bacillus subtilis.
