New modules for PCR‐based gene targeting in Candida albicans: rapid and efficient gene targeting using 100 bp of flanking homology region
- S. Gola, R. Martin, A. Walther, Alexander Dünkler, J. Wendland
- Biology, Medicine
- Yeast
- 1 December 2003
The use of PCR‐based techniques for directed gene alterations has become a standard tool in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In our efforts to increase the speed of functional analysis of Candida albicans… Expand
Genome Sequence of Saccharomyces carlsbergensis, the World’s First Pure Culture Lager Yeast
- A. Walther, Ana Hesselbart, J. Wendland
- Biology, Medicine
- G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics
- 27 February 2014
Lager yeast beer production was revolutionized by the introduction of pure culture strains. The first established lager yeast strain is known as the bottom fermenting Saccharomyces carlsbergensis,… Expand
An improved transformation protocol for the human fungal pathogen Candida albicans
- A. Walther, J. Wendland

- Current Genetics
- 30 January 2003
Abstract. Commonly used protocols for the transformation of the dimorphic human fungal pathogen Candida albicans rely on established methods for the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. With respect to… Expand
Ashbya gossypii: a model for fungal developmental biology
- J. Wendland, A. Walther
- Biology, Medicine
- Nature Reviews Microbiology
- 1 May 2005
Ashbya gossypii is a riboflavin-overproducing filamentous fungus that is closely related to unicellular yeasts such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae. With its close ties to yeast and the ease of genetic… Expand
Candida albicans CHT3 encodes the functional homolog of the Cts1 chitinase of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

- Biology, Medicine
- Fungal genetics and biology : FG & B
- 1 November 2005
Chitin synthesis and chitin degradation play an important role in cellular morphogenesis and influence the cell shape of fungal organisms. The Candida albicans genome contains four chitinase genes,… Expand
PCR-based gene targeting in Candida albicans
- A. Walther, J. Wendland
- Biology, Medicine
- Nature Protocols
- 1 August 2008
PCR-based gene-targeting approaches have increased the speed of gene function analyses in ascomycetous fungi, for example, in the diploid human fungal pathogen Candida albicans. Here we describe a… Expand
Yap1-dependent oxidative stress response provides a link to riboflavin production in Ashbya gossypii.
- A. Walther, J. Wendland
- Biology, Medicine
- Fungal genetics and biology : FG & B
- 1 September 2012
Ashbya gossypii is a natural overproducer of riboflavin. Overproduction of riboflavin can be induced by environmental stress, e.g. nutritional or oxidative stress. The Yap-protein family has a… Expand
Confirmation that the North American ancylid Ferrissia fragilis (Tryon, 1863) is a cryptic invader of European and East Asian freshwater ecosystems
- A. Walther, T. Lee, J. Burch, Diarmaid Ó Foighil

New pFA‐cassettes for PCR‐based gene manipulation in Candida albicans
- Y. Schaub, Alexander Dünkler, A. Walther, J. Wendland
- Biology, Medicine
- Journal of basic microbiology
- 1 October 2006
Several modules for efficient PCR‐based gene disruption have recently been introduced in Candida albicans. These are based on auxotrophic marker genes for deficient strains derived from SC5314/CAI4.… Expand
Ras1-Induced Hyphal Development in Candida albicans Requires the Formin Bni1
- R. Martin, A. Walther, J. Wendland
- Biology, Medicine
- Eukaryotic Cell
- 1 October 2005
ABSTRACT Formins are downstream effector proteins of Rho-type GTPases and are involved in the organization of the actin cytoskeleton and actin cable assembly at sites of polarized cell growth. Here… Expand
