<i>Candida</i> yeast such as <i>C. glabrata</i>, express a hemolysin-like protein (HLP) that is structural similarity to hemolysins in other pathogens. HLP polypeptides are antigenic and are useful as vaccine components to raise a protective immune response against <i>Candida</i>. HLP expression is regulated by phenotype switching in <i>C. glabrata</i> and coincides with the hemolytic activity of the phenotype.
