Isolation of a putative Candida albicans transcriptional regulator involved in pleiotropic drug resistance by functional complementation of a pdr1 pdr3 mutation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Abstract excerpt

Three Candida albicans genes, designated FCR (for fluconazole resistance), have been isolated by their ability to complement the fluconazole (FCZ) hypersensitivity of a Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutant lacking the transcription factors Pdr1p and Pdr3p. Overexpression of any of the three FCR genes in the pdr1 pdr3 mutant resulted in increased resistance of the cells to FCZ and cycloheximide and in increased...
