Abstract:Transcriptional regulation of azole resistance in the filamentous fungusAspergillus fumigatusis a key step in development of this problematic clinical phenotype. We and others have previously described a C2H2-containing transcription factor called FfmA that is required for normal levels of voriconazole susceptibility and expression of an ATP-binding cassette transporter gene calledabcG1. Null alleles offfmAexhibit a strongly compromised growth rate even in the absence of any external stress. Here we employ an … Show more
