AbstractOBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of C. albicans SAP7 gene in induced endocytosis in Candida-epithelial cell interactions. METHOD: In this study, C. albicans sap7 mutant strain was constructed in our laboratory by a PCR – based gene disruption method. In the endocytosis assay, the number of C. albicans cells that were cell-associated with and endocytosed by OKF6/TERT2 was determined using differential fluorescence assay with minor modifications. Briefly, conflucent OKF6/TERT2 cells were infected with 1×105 Candida cells for 3 h incubation. After removing nonadherent organisms, the cells were fixed with 3% paraformaldehyde. The adherent but not endocytosed ...
