Candida albicans has several properties which allow it to colonize and invade host tissues, often resisting eradication. Two of these properties, adherence and acid proteinase production, seem to be genuine factors. Phenotypic switching and molecular mimicry may also provide the organism with an arsenal of mechanisms to evade host defenses.
白色念珠菌具有多种特性，使其能够在宿主组织中定殖和侵袭，并且常常难以被根除。其中两个特性，即黏附作用和酸性蛋白酶的产生，似乎是真正的因素。表型转换和分子模拟也可能为该生物体提供一系列逃避宿主防御的机制。
