Systematic Gene Overexpression in Candida albicans identifies a Regulator of Early Adaptation to the Mammalian Gut
We are grateful to members of the genomics core facility (PF2, Génopole) for the availability of the microarray scanner and the Alain Jacquier's lab for making the GenePix software available. We are grateful to Drs. Suzanne Noble and Aaron Mitchell for providing C. albicans mutant collections. We thank all members of the Fungal Biology & Pathogenicity Unit, particularly Drs. Anne Neville and Adeline Feri for their numerous insights during the course of this project.
