  • Peptide Permeases in Candida albicans

    Publication

    - MYCOSES - Year 2012

    Aims: The aim of this work was to characterize oligopeptide uptake in Candida albicans mutants in which the genes encoding putative peptide permeases were selectively disrupted. Initial velocities of transport of model oligopeptides, (Ala)2, (Ala)3, (Ala)4, and sensitivity of mutants to antifungal oligopeptides containing N3-(4-methoxyfumaroyl)-L-2,3-diaminopropanoic acid (FMDP) were determined and compared to those of the wild-type...

  • Voriconazole and multidrug resistance in Candida albicans

    Publication

    - MYCOSES - Year 2007

    Porównano aktywność grzybostatyczną in vitro worikonazolu, flukonazolu, ketokonazolu i klotrimazolu wobec opornych na flukonazol szczepów klinicznych Candida albicans oraz rekombinowanych szczepów Saccharomyces cerevisiae eksprymujących jeden z genów kodujących białka oporności wielolekowej (MDR) C. albicans: Cdr1p. Cdr2p lub CaMdr1p. Stwierdzono, że nadekspresja genów MDR czyni komórki drożdżaków mniej wrażliwymi na działanie...

  • Characterization of two aminotransferases from Candida albicans

    Publication

    Aminoadipate aminotransferase (AmAA) is an enzyme of α-aminoadipate pathway (AAP) for l-lysine biosynthesis. AmAA may also participated in biosynthesis or degradation of aromatic amino acids and in d-tryptophan based pigment production. The AAP is unique for fungal microorganisms. Enzymes involved in this pathway have specific structures and properties. These features can be used as potential molecular markers. Enzymes catalyzing...

  • Phenotypic consequences of LYS4 gene disruption in Candida albicans

    Publication

    - YEAST - Year 2014

    A BLAST search of the Candida Genome Database with the Saccharomyces cerevisiae LYS4 sequence known to encode homoaconitase (HA) revealed ORFs 19.3846 and 19.11327. Both alleles of the LYS4 gene were sequentially disrupted in Candida albicans BWP17 cells using PCR-based methodology. The null lys4Δ mutant exhibited lysine auxotrophy in minimal medium but was able to grow in the presence of L-Lys and α-aminoadipate, an intermediate...

  • Phenotypic consequences of the LYS4 gene disruption in Candida albicans

    Publication

    - MYCOSES - Year 2012

    The main scientific purpose of our studies was to verify the hypothesis that homoaconitase (HA) from Candida albicans, an enzyme catalyzing a second step of the α-aminoadipate pathway (AAP) of L-Lys biosynthesis may become a new target for antifungal chemotherapy. Previous studies indicated that the A. fumigatus mutant lacking the functional lysF gene, encoding HA, exhibited attenuated virulence in a low-dose mouse infection model...
