Nikkomycin Z supersensitivity of an echinocandin-resistant mutant of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Antimicrobial agents and chemotherapy - 1 Jan 1995

el-Sherbeini M, Clemas J A

Abstract excerpt

Echinocandins and nikkomycins are antibiotics that inhibit the synthesis of the essential cell wall polysaccharide polymers 1,3-beta-glucan and chitin, respectively. Some 40 echinocandin-resistant Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutants were isolated and assigned to five complementation groups. Four complementation groups contained mutants with 38 recessive mutations. The fifth complementation group comprised mutants...
