The Candida albicans CTR1 gene encodes a functional copper transporter.

Microbiology (Reading, England) - 1 Jun 2003

Marvin Marcus E, Williams Peter H, Cashmore Annette M

Abstract excerpt

Copper and iron uptake in Saccharomyces cerevisiae are linked through a high-affinity ferric/cupric-reductive uptake system. Evidence suggests that a similar system operates in Candida albicans. The authors have identified a C. albicans gene that is able to rescue a S. cerevisiae ctr1/ctr3-null mutant defective in high-affinity copper uptake. The 756 bp ORF, designated CaCTR1, encodes a 251 amino acid protein...
