gene CaGPI12 is a single copy of the gene on chromosome 1 | Candida albicans |
Protein Variants | Comment | Organism |

additional information | a CaGPI12 heterozygous is generated by disrupting one allele with HIS1 by a PCR-mediated approach using CaGPI12-HIS1 FP and CaGPI12-HIS1 RP by the lithium-acetate (LiAc) method. The CaGPI12 conditional null mutant is made by replacing its native promoter with MET3 promoter by using the pMET3-GFP-URA3 cassette. CaGPI12 is able to rescue the growth defect of the ScGPI12 conditional null strain as compared to the control strain carrying the YepHIS vector alone, suggesting that CaGPI12 functionally complements ScGPI12.

General Information | Comment | Organism |

malfunction | loss of the enzyme causes reduction of GlcNAc-PI de-N-acetylase activity, cell wall defects, and filamentation defects. The filamentation defects can be specifically correlated to an upregulation of the HOG1 pathway. In the CaGPI12 conditional null strain grown under repressive conditions, no pseudohyphae or hyphae formation is observed and all cells are in the yeast form in contrast to wild-type. The CaGPI12 conditional null mutant is resistant to azoles. Reintroduction of CaGPI12 in the CaGPI12 conditional null can reverse its growth defect and restore de-N-acetylase activity | Candida albicans |
metabolism | the enzyme catalyses the second step of glycosylphosphatidylinositol biosynthesis in Candida albicans | Candida albicans |
additional information | two conserved motifs, HPDDE and HXXH, are both important for the enzyme function in the cell. Enzyme structure comparison of CaGPI12 with Saccharomyces cerevisiae GPI12 | Candida albicans |
physiological function | Candida albicans N-acetylglucosaminylphosphatidylinositol de-N-acetylase (CaGpi12) recognises N-acetylglucosaminylphosphatidylinositol (GlcNAc-PI) from Saccharomyces cerevisiae and is able to complement the Saccharomyces cerevisiae ScGPI12 function. CaGPI12 is able to rescue the growth defect of the ScGPI12 conditional null strain as compared to the control strain carrying the YepHIS vector alone, suggesting that CaGPI12 functionally complements ScGPI12. CaGPI12 is essential for growth and viability of Candida albicans. CaGPI12 is required for yeast to hyphal transition in Candida albicans | Candida albicans |
