Nonsex Genes in the Mating Type Locus of Candida albicans Play Roles in a/α Biofilm Formation, Including Impermeability and Fluconazole Resistance

The mating type locus (MTL) of Candida albicans contains the mating type genes and has, therefore, been assumed to play an exclusive role in the mating process. In mating-incompetent a/α cells, two of the mating type genes, MTL a1 and MTLα2, encode components of the a1-α2 corepressor that suppresses...
