## Abstract A strain of __Candida albicans__ was found to have an associative temperature profile with respect to growth, thermal death and yield on glucose. The ARRHENIUS plot of sustained exponential growth displayed two branches in the supraoptimal temperature range with the optimum temperature

✦ Synopsis
On the basis of methylation analysis, 13C- and 1H-n.m.r. spectroscopic data, and the results of immunological methods, a new structure for the cell-wall alpha-D-mannan of the pathogenic yeast Candida krusei is proposed. In contrast to the alpha-D-mannans of other pathogenic yeasts of the Candida species, which have (1----6)-linked main chains and many (1----2)- and/or (1----3)-linked side chains, the C. krusei mannan is lightly branched and contains (1----2) and (1----6) linkages in the ratio 3:1.

Dimorphism in the yeast Candida albicans provides an unusually simple model system for investigating the mechanisms which regulate cellular differentiation, or cell divergence. Under the regime of pH-regulated dimorphism, it has been demonstrated that the programs of protein synthesis accompanying b
The structure of the D-mannan of Candida stellatoidea IFO 1397 strain, which has properties identical to those of the phospho-D-mannan of C. albicans serotype B strain, does not contain phosphate groups, and its 1H- and 13C-n.m.r. spectra are quite similar to those of the phospho-D-mannan of C. albi
A highly efficient strategy for the preparation of D-manno-hexa-and nonasaccharides related to the cell wall D-mannan of yeast Canddda albicans having ct-( 1-\*6)-and ¢t-( 1--~2)-linkages has been developed using 6-O-acetyl-2-O-benzoyl-3,4-di-O-benzyl~-D-mannopyranosyl trichloroacetinfidate (7) as t
