The nucleotide sequence of the Candida albicans alcohol dehydrogenase gene (C.alb ADH) and its deduced amino acid sequence. Saccharomyces cerevisiae alcohol dehydrogenase type I amino acid and nucleotide sequences are provided for reference (S.c. ADH1). There is 74 % identity between the two sequences at the amino acid level with a similarity of 7.5 % . The underlined area indicates the zinc-containing alcohol dehydrogenase consensus sequence. A part of this sequence has been reported by Shen et al. (1991, Clin Exp Allergy, 21, 675-681) and is indicated by asterisks.
