A large-scale overexpression screen uncovers two paralogous genes ZCF15 and ZCF26 modulating Candida albicans biofilm gene circuitry (RNA-seq data)

To identify novel genes modulating Candida albicans biofilm formation, a screen of 2451 overexpression strains allowed us to identify 16 genes whose overexpression significantly reduced biofilm formation. Genome-wide expression and binding analyses were conducted upon overexpression of ZCF15 and ZCF26 and wild type planktonic and biofilm cells were performed. This study has identified new sets of biofilm regulators, including ZCF15 and ZCF26 whose specific role in metabolic remodelling during C. Albicans biofilm development. Triplicates data of RNAseq data are provided here with 6 conditions including the ZCF15 and ZCF16 cases mentioned here above
