Abstract

Molecular genetic studies thus far have identified ~27% open-reading frames as being essential for the vegetative growth of Candida albicans in rich medium out of a total 6,198 haploid set of open reading frames. However, a major limitation has been to construct rapid conditional alleles of essential C. albicans genes with near quantitative depletion of encoded proteins. Here, we have developed a toolbox for rapid and conditional depletion of genes that would aid studies of gene function of both essential and non-essential genes.
