摘要：

Candida albicans has a number of transcriptional regulatory circuits that control aspects of cell type and cell morphogenesis. Recent work has uncovered a cryptic mating-type locus, and a variety of transcription factors that are important in regulation of the transition from yeast growth to hypha[ growth. In some cases, the signalling pathways regulating these transcription factors are becoming defined. Analysis of phenotypic switching implicates internal factors, as well as external signals, in control of cellular morphogenesis.
