Top: Subcellular localization of Cap1-GFP in wild-type background (top, tetO-CAP1-GFP/CAP1), Cap1-GFP with C446* (middle, TeO-CAP1C446*-GFP/CAP1) and wild-type Cap1-RFP (bottom, CAP1C446*/TeO-CAP1-RFP) in CAP1/CAP1C446* background. Scale bar, 5 μm. Bottom: Schematic of subcellular localization and transcription activation of CAP1 in wild-type (CAP1/CAP1, left) and CAP1/CAP1C446*. Figure generated with BioRender.
#Azole resistance in #Candida albicans poses a growing threat, and is linked to #StressResponse. @annaselmecki.bsky.social &co show that mutations in the oxidative stress TF Cap1 promote #DrugResistance while exposing a lethal vulnerability at high azole doses @plosbiology.org 🧪 plos.io/4rOrfOz
