Temporal dynamics of Candida albicans morphogenesis and gene expression reveals distinctions between in vitro and in vivo filamentation.

Rohan S. Wakade, Melanie A. Wellington, Damian J. Krysan

This paper compares the temporal dynamics of morphogenesis and gene expression during C. albicans filamentation in vitro and in vivo, identifying key differences in metabolic gene expression and hyphae-to-yeast transition rates.

The role of the C. albicans transcriptional repressor NRG1 during filamentation and disseminated candidiasis is strain-dependent

Rohan S. Wakade, Melanie A. Wellington, Damian J. Krysan

This study shows that the function of the C. albicans transcriptional repressor NRG1 varies by strain, affecting filamentation and virulence in different contexts.
