| Comment: | The yeast Candida tropicalis is the second most pathogenic Candida species after Candida albicans and is more often associated with deep fungal infections than normal mucosa. Candida tropicalis is an asexual diploid organism. Similar to many other Candida species, a CUG codon in Candida tropicalis corresponds to a serine residue instead of the universal leucine. |
