Abstract

Recent sequencing and assembly of the genome for the fungal pathogen Candida albicans used simple automated procedures for the identification of putative genes. We have reviewed the entire assembly, both by hand and with additional bioinformatic resources, to accurately map and describe 6,354 genes and to identify 246 genes whose original database entries contained sequencing errors (or possibly mutations) that affect their reading frame. Comparison with other fungal genomes permitted the identification of numerous fungus-specific genes that might be targeted for antifungal therapy. We also observed that, compared to other fungi, the protein-coding sequences in the C. albicans genome are especially rich in short sequence repeats. Finally, our improved annotation permitted a detailed analysis of several multigene families, and comparative genomic studies showed that C. albicans has a far greater catabolic range, encoding respiratory Complex 1, several novel oxidoreductases and ketone body degrading enzymes, malonyl-CoA and enoyl-CoA carriers, several novel amino acid degrading enzymes, a variety of secreted catabolic lipases and proteases, and numerous transporters to assimilate the resulting nutrients. The results of these efforts will ensure that the Candida research community has uniform and comprehensive genomic information for medical research as well as for future diagnostic and therapeutic applications.

  • The ALS gene family encodes eight GPI-linked cell surface proteins that mediate binding to diverse host substrates.

    “This gene family encodes eight GPI-linked cell surface proteins that mediate binding to diverse host substrates [20][21][22][23][24][25].”

    From Als3 Is a Candida albicans Invasin That Binds to Cadherins and Induces Endocytosis by Host Cells (2007) · cites this paper as [21]

    The Results/Discussion section, under “Multigene Families” (page unavailable), says the ALS family has eight genes encoding cell-surface glycoproteins involved in host–pathogen interactions; it also reports adhesive capability for an Als3p variant. Our copy does not establish that all eight proteins are GPI-linked or that they bind diverse host substrates. (LLM, conf=0.88)

  • The Als family of proteins contains six members in addition to Als1 and Als3.

    “The Als family of proteins contains six members in addition to Als1 and Als3 [20][21][22][23][24][25].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
