Abstract excerpt
The BENr gene of Candida albicans, which confers resistance on susceptible strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to six structurally and functionally unrelated drugs, was described recently (R. Ben-Yaacov, S. Knoller, G. Caldwell, J. M. Becker, and Y. Koltin, Antimicrob. Agents Chemother. 38:648-652, 1994). This gene bears similarity to membrane proteins encoding antibiotic resistance in prokaryotes and eukaryotes....
