Abstract excerpt
By functional complementation of a PDR5 null mutant of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, we have cloned and sequenced the multidrug-resistance gene CDR1 of Candida albicans. Transformation by CDR1 of a PDR5-disrupted host hypersensitive to cycloheximide and chloramphenicol resulted in resistance to cycloheximide, chloramphenicol and other drugs, such as the antifungal miconazole, with collateral hypersensitivity to...
