Phr1p, a glycosylphosphatidylinsitol-anchored β(1,3)-glucanosyltransferase critical for hyphal wall formation, localizes to the apical growth sites and septa in Candida albicans

► We examined the localization of a fusion of the Candida albicans Phr1 protein with the green fluorescent protein. ► Phr1p-GFP localizes to sites of active cell or hyphal wall formation. ► Phr1p-GFP localization in the hyphal septa requires microtubules polymerization. ► Actin cytoskeleton is required for apical localization of Phr1p-GFP. ► The absence of Phr1p affects hyphal wall organization.
