Generation of Viable Candida albicans Mutants Lacking the “Essential” Protein Kinase Snf1 by Inducible Gene Deletion

Essential genes are those that are indispensable for the viability and growth of an organism. Previous studies indicated that the protein kinase Snf1, a central regulator of metabolic adaptation, is essential in the pathogenic yeast Candida albicans, because no homozygous snf1 deletion mutants of C....
