Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels, an ancient family of cation channels, are highly conserved in eukaryotes and play various physiological functions, ranging from sensation of ion homeostasis to reception of pain and vision. Calcium-permeable TRP channels have been identified from the plant Arabidopsis thaliana (AtCsc1) and the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae (ScCsc1). In this study, we characterized the functions of the Csc1 homolog, orf19.4805, in Candida albicans. Orf19.4805 is a protein of 866 amino acids and 11 transmembrane domains, which shares 49% identity (69% similarity) in amino acid sequence with ScRsn1. Here, we demonstrate that deletion of the orf19.4805 gene causes C. albicans cells to be sensitive to SDS (sodium dodecyl sulfate) and antifungal drugs, and tolerance to zinc, manganese, and cadmium ions. Candida albicans cells lacking orf19.4805 show a defect in filamentation in vitro. Therefore, orf19.4805 is involved in the regulation of cation homeostasis and filamentation in C. albicans.
