dc.description.abstract | Summary -Candida dubliniensis is a recently described Candida species associated with oral
candidosis in Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)-infected and AIDS patients. The
phylogenetic position of C. dubliniensis has previously been established on the basis of the
sequence of rRNA genes In order to establish that C dubliniensis is a new yeast species and
to confirm its relationship to other yeast species, particularly C albicans, using non-rRNA
gene sequences the ACT1 gene was chosen for analysis The C. dubliniensis ACT1 gene
(CdACT1) was cloned and sequenced from a genomic DNA λ library using PCR. Analysis of
the sequence data revealed the presence of a 1131 bp ORF interrupted by a single 632 bp
intron at the 5' extremity of the gene. Comparison of the CdACT1 sequence with the C.
albicans homologue (CaACT1) revealed that although the exons are 97.9 % identical the
introns are only 83.4 % identical. | |
