  • Title: A Candida albicans rough-type mutant with increased cell surface hydrophobicity and a structural defect in the cell wall mannan.
    Author: Shimokawa O, Nakayama H.
    Journal: J Med Vet Mycol; 1986 Apr; 24(2):165-8. PubMed ID: 3522842.
    Abstract:
    A Candida albicans rough-type mutant showing increased hydrophobicity of the cell surface was isolated. The mutant cells contained about one-quarter as much mannan as the wild type, and were defective in antigenic factors 1, 4, 5, and 6. Acetolysis fingerprinting demonstrated that the mutant mannan had a structural defect in its carbohydrate skeleton.
