Gene
DFI1
Protein
Cell-surface associated glycoprotein DFI1
Organism
Candida albicans (strain SC5314 / ATCC MYA-2876)
Length
337 amino acids
Function
Cell-surface associated glycoprotein that acts as a plasma membrane receptor-type protein which senses the presence of matrix. Binds to calmodulin in response to environmental conditions and initiates a signaling cascade that activates CEK1, thus promoting invasive filamentation. Involved in the maintenance of the cell wall.
Similarity
Belongs to the MID2 like cell wall stress sensor family.
