D-arabitol metabolism in Candida albicans: construction and analysis of mutants lacking D-arabitol dehydrogenase.

Candida albicans produces large amounts of the acyclic pentitol D-arabitol in culture and in infected animals and humans, and most strains also grow on minimal D-arabitol medium. An earlier study showed that the major metabolic precursor of D-arabitol in C. albicans was D-ribulose-5-PO4 from the pen...
