LITERATURE
evolution
malfunction
-
inactivation of GAL102-encoded UDP-glucose 4,6-dehydratase activity causes altered mannosylation of cell wall proteins, loss of cell wall integrity and changes in biofilm characteristics. The reduced virulence of gal102-deficient Candida albicans is associated with ist inability to elicit a strong pro-inflammatory response
physiological function
-
UDP-glucose 4, 6-dehydratase activity plays an important role in maintaining cell wall integrity and virulence of Candida albicans
