Identification and characterization of Rvs162/Rvs167-3, a novel N-BAR heterodimer in the human fungal pathogen Candida albicans.

Membrane reshaping resides at the core of many important cellular processes, and among its mediators are the BAR (Bin, Amphiphysin, Rvs) domain-containing proteins. We have explored the diversity and function of the Rvs BAR proteins in Candida albicans and identified a novel family member, Rvs167-3 (orf19.1861).
