. "Major cell surface adhesion protein which mediates both yeast-to-host tissue adherence and yeast aggregation. Acts as is a downstream effector of the EFG1 regulatory pathway. Required for rapamycin-induced aggregation of C.albicans. Binds glycans and mediates adherence to endothelial and epithelial cells, such playing an important role in the pathogenesis of C.albicans infections." .
