Single allele knock-out of Candida albicans CGT1 leads to unexpected resistance to hygromycin B and elevated temperature.
Almost all eukaryotic mRNAs are capped at their 5'-terminus. Capping is crucial for stability, processing, nuclear export and efficient translation of mRNA. We studied the phenotypic effects elicited by depleting a Candida albicans strain of mRNA 5'-guanylyltransferase (mRNA capping enzyme; CGT1). Construction of a Cgt1-deficient mutant was achieved by URA-blaster-mediated genetic disruption of...
متن کاملThe Phenotypic variation of Candida albicans and susceptibility to fluconazole and voriconazole
Candida albicans is the most frequent opportunistic fungal agent in human being. One of its virulence factors is phenotypic switching. In this study, we investigated the susceptibility of different phenotypes of C. albicans, obtained from clinical specimens, to fluconazole (FLZ) and voriconazole (VRZ) with microdilution reference method. In this study, 281 C. albicans of six different phenotype...
متن کاملUsing PCR to Compare the Expression of CDR1, CDR2, and MDR1 in Candida Albicans Isolates Resistant and Susceptible to Fluconazole
Abstract Background and objectives: More Candida albicans strains are reported resistant to fluconazole in patients with AIDS, cancer and organ recipients. Fluconazole resistance can be attributed to changes in pathways of sterol biosynthesis, mutation in or overexpression of ERG11 and the expression of CDR1, CDR2, and MDR1. This study aimed to compare the ex...
متن کاملCandida albicans biofilms formed into catheters and probes and their resistance to amphotericin B.
In Algeria, many bacterial biofilms have been studied but those of fungal origin, particularly those due to the yeast Candida albicans remained unidentified. The present study was performed at the Chabane Hamdoune hospital in Maghnia (Algeria), where 51 strains of C. albicans representing 16.94% of all taken samples were isolated. They were collected from catheters and probes used in different ...
متن کاملDevelopment of Resistance to Polyene Antibiotics in Candida Albicans.
Hebeka, Elias K. (Rutgers, The State University, New Brunswick, N.J.), and Morris Solotorovsky. Development of resistance to polyene antibiotics in Candida albicans. J. Bacteriol. 89:1533-1539. 1965.-Strains of Candida albicans resistant to the polyenes candidin and amphotericin B, but not to nystatin, were developed by sub-culturing the organism in gradually increasing concentrations of the an...
