ChIP-chip data for transcription factor binding in white and opaque cell types of Candida albicans

ABSTRACT: The human fungal pathogen Candida albicans can switch between two phenotypic cell types, termed “white” and “opaque.” Both cell types are heritable for many generations, and the switch between the two types occurs epigenetically, that is, without a change in the DNA sequence of the genome. Previous work identified six key transcriptional regulators important for white-opaque switching: Wor1, Wor2, Wor3, Czf1, Efg1, and Ahr1. In this work, we use a combination of genetic and genome-wide approaches to explore the topology of the transcriptional network that specifies each of the two cell types, and governs the ability to switch between them. In particular, we use a combination of genome-wide chromatin immunoprecipitation and gene expression profiling to determine the direct and indirect regu
