Abstract excerpt
Candida drug resistance protein (Cdr1p) is a major drug efflux protein, which plays a key role in commonly encountered clinical azole resistance in Candida albicans. We have analyzed its sequence in several azole resistant clinical isolates to evaluate the allelic variation within CDR1 gene and to relate it to its functional activity. The sequence analysis revealed 53 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), out...
