Figure 2From: Sap6, a secreted aspartyl proteinase, participates in maintenance the cell surface integrity of Candida albicansSap6 is distributed on hypha-tip of THP-1 engulfed C. albicans . Co-cultured cells were harvested and subjected to immunofluorescence staining. Overlay: the fluorescence image was overlaid with the phase contrast image. SC5314: the wild type strain; Δsap2: the SAP2 gene deleted mutant; Δsap5: the SAP5 gene deleted mutant; Δsap6: the SAP6 gene deleted mutant.Back to article page
