Comment: | Candida albicans is one of the most commonly encountered human pathogens, causing a wide variety of infections ranging from mucosal infections in generally healthy persons to life-threatening systemic infections in individuals with impaired immunity. Candida albicans differs in various respects from other genome sequences in that both copies of the genome are explicitly represented. Similar to many other Candida species, a CUG codon in Candida albicans corresponds to a serine residue instead of the universal leucine. |
