The expression and drug efflux activity of the
ATP binding cassette transporters Cdr1p and Pdh1p are thought to have
contributed to the recent increase in the number of fungal infections
caused by Candida glabrata. The function of these
transporters and their pumping characteristics, however, remain ill
defined. We have evaluated the function of Cdr1p and Pdh1p through
their heterologous hyperexpression in a Saccharomyces
cerevisiae strain deleted in seven major drug efflux transporters
to minimize the background drug efflux activity. Although both Cdr1p-
and Pdh1p-expressing strains CDR1-AD and PDH1-AD acquired multiple
resistances to structurally unrelated compounds, CDR1-AD showed, in
most cases, higher levels of resistance than PDH1-AD. CDR1-AD also
showed greater rhodamine 6G efflux and resistance to pump inhibitors,
although plasma membrane fractions had comparable NTPase activities.
These results indicate that Cdr1p makes a larger contribution than
Phd1p to the reduced susceptibility of C. glabrata to
xenobiotics. Both pump proteins were phosphorylated in a
glucose-dependent manner. Whereas the phosphorylation of
Cdr1p affected its NTPase activity, the protein kinase A-mediated
phosphorylation of Pdh1p, which was necessary for drug efflux, did not.
This suggests that phosphorylation of Pdh1p may be required for
efficient coupling of NTPase activity with drug efflux.
