Atomic Force Microscopy Demonstrates that Candida glabrata Uses Three Epa Proteins To Mediate Adhesion to Abiotic Surfaces
Candida glabrata cell wall proteins mediate the attachment of C. glabrata to abiotic surfaces through molecular interactions that are poorly understood. Here, we study the forces engaged in Epa-dependent adhesion using single-cell techniques. Fungal adhesion to hydrophilic and hydrophobic substrates...
