From the first touch to biofilm establishment by the human pathogen Candida glabrata: a genome-wide to nanoscale view

Mafalda Cavalheiro et al. use single-cell force spectroscopy and RNA-seq to examine the adhesion process of Candida glabrata, an opportunistic human fungal pathogen, to various medical surfaces. Their results suggest that the adhesion forces of C. glabrata to medical material are stronger than those...
