Abstract excerpt
Constitutive, high-level transcription of the gene encoding the drug efflux facilitator Mdr1p is commonly observed in laboratory and clinical strains of Candida albicans that are resistant to the antifungal drug fluconazole (FLC). In five independently isolated FLC(R) laboratory strains, introduction of a wild-type MDR1 promoter fragment fused to the yeast enhanced green fluorescent protein (yEGFP) reporter gene...
