Transcriptional Activation and Increased mRNA Stability Contribute to Overexpression of CDR1 in Azole-Resistant Candida albicans
12 Feb 2008
Abstract excerpt
Many azole-resistant (AR) clinical isolates of Candida albicans display increased expression of the drug transporters CDR1 and CDR2. In this study, we evaluate the molecular mechanisms that contribute to the maintenance of constitutively high CDR1 transcript levels in two matched pairs of azole-susceptible (AS) and AR clinical isolates of C. albicans. To address this, we use reporter constructs of GFP and lacZ...
