Adaptation of Candida albicans to environmental pH induces cell wall remodelling and enhances innate immune recognition

Exposure of β-glucan and chitin do not co-localise.
Wild type Candida albicans cells (NGY152) were grown to mid-log phase in YPD buffered at pH2, pH4 and pH6, washed, fixed with 4% PFA and stained with CFW, TRITC-labeled WGA, and Fc-Dectin-1 (FITC). White arrowheads indicate patches of β-glucan exposure. Scale bar represents 10 μm.
