Molecular cloning of a third chitinase gene (CHT1) from Candida albicans
1996
McCreath, Kenneth J. | Specht, Charles A. | Liu, Yilun | Robbins, Phillips W.
Here we report the complete nucleotide sequence of a third chitinase gene (CHT1) from the dimorphic human pathogen Candida albicans. The deduced amino acid (aa) sequence of Cht1 consists of 416 aa and displays 36% protein sequence similarity to chitinases Cht2 and Cht3, from C. albicans. Interestingly the domain structure of Cht1 is truncated when compared to the other chitinases of C. albicans and lacks a Ser/Thr‐rich region. The sequence data will appear in the GenBank Nucleotide Sequence Data Library under the accession number U36490.
