Abstract excerpt
The Cys6Zn2 DNA-binding domain transcription factor Pdr1 is a central regulator of drug resistance in the pathogenic yeast Candida glabrata. In this review, I discuss the multiple control mechanisms modulating the function of this positive transcriptional regulator. Available data suggest that Pdr1 activity is restrained by multiple negative inputs that can be lost by either mutagenesis of the protein or loss of...
