ELM1 is required for multidrug resistance in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, transcription of several drug transporter genes, including the major transporter gene PDR5, has been shown to peak during mitosis. The significance of this observation, however, remains unclear. PDR1 encodes the primary transcription activator of multiple drug transporter genes in S. cerevisiae, including PDR5. Here, we show that in synchronized PDR1 and pdr1-3 (mul...
متن کاملGenetic separation of FK506 susceptibility and drug transport in the yeast Pdr5 ATP-binding cassette multidrug resistance transporter.
Overexpression of the yeast Pdr5 ATP-binding cassette transporter leads to pleiotropic drug resistance to a variety of structurally unrelated cytotoxic compounds. To identify Pdr5 residues involved in substrate recognition and/or drug transport, we used a combination of random in vitro mutagenesis and phenotypic screening to isolate novel mutant Pdr5 transporters with altered substrate specific...
متن کاملA mutation of the H-loop selectively affects rhodamine transport by the yeast multidrug ABC transporter Pdr5.
The yeast ABC transporter Pdr5 plays a major role in drug resistance against a large number of structurally unrelated compounds. Although Pdr5 has been extensively studied, many important aspects regarding its molecular mechanisms remain unresolved. For example, a striking degeneration of conserved amino acid residues exists in the nucleotide binding domains (NBDs), but their functional relevan...
متن کاملA novel multidrug efflux transporter gene of the major facilitator superfamily from Candida albicans (FLU1) conferring resistance to fluconazole.
Azole resistance in Candida albicans can be mediated by several resistance mechanisms. Among these, alterations of the azole target enzyme and the overexpression of multidrug efflux transporter genes are the most frequent. To identify additional putative azole resistance genes in C. albicans, a genomic library from this organism was screened for complementation of fluconazole hypersusceptibilit...
متن کاملA yeast manganese transporter related to the macrophage protein involved in conferring resistance to mycobacteria.
A novel Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutant, unable to grow in the presence of 12.5 mM EGTA, was isolated by replica plating. The phenotype of the mutant is caused by a single amino acid change (Gly149 to Arg) in the essential yeast gene CDC1. The mutant could be suppressed by overexpression of the SMF1 gene, which was isolated as an extragenic high-copy suppressor. The SMF1 gene codes for a highly...
