Abstract
Substantially pure C. albicans topoisomerase I protein is disclosed. Nucleic acid molecules that encode C. albicans topoisomerase I protein, recombinant expression vectors that comprise a nucleic acid sequence that encodes C. albicans topoisomerase I protein, and host cells that comprise recombinant expression vectors that comprise nucleic acid sequences that encode C. albicans topoisomerase I protein are disclosed. Fragments of nucleic acid molecules with sequences encoding C. albicans topoisomerase I protein and oligonucleotide molecules that comprise a nucleotide sequence complimentary to fragment of a nucleotide sequence that encodes C. albicans topoisomerase I protein are disclosed. Antibodies which bind to an epitope on C. albicans topoisomerase I protein are disclosed. Methods of identifying inhibitors of C. albicans topoisomerase I protein are disclosed.
