Abstract:

Candida albicans is the most common opportunistic fungal pathogen in humans. V-ATPase is one of the proton transporter complexes, which is highly conserved in eukaryotes. V-ATPase sustains the pH steady between cytosolic and vacuolar. Recently V-ATPase has been concerned as a potential target in C.albicans. This article reviews its research progress.

Key words: Candida albicans, vacuole, V-ATPase
