Identification of calcineurin- and Crz1-dependent targets in Candida glabrata

ABSTRACT: In order to identify calcineurin pathway-regulated genes, we compared the genome-wide expression profile of wild-type with FK506-treated wild-type, cna1, and crz1 mutants. We expect that FK506-treated wild-type will have similar expression profile with that of the cna1 mutant. In response to calcineurin inhibitor FK506, the up- and down-regulated by FK506 were 113 and 87 genes, respectively (cutoff q < 0.001). The genes regulated by FK506 are largely overlapped (90%, 180/200) with those of cna1 mutant. Interestingly, FK506 induced 20 distinct genes other than that of the cna1 mutant. These genes encode proteins involved in plasma membrane ATP-bindding cassette (ABC) multidrug transporters (PDR15, PDR5, and YOR1), amino acid transporters (ALP1 and YBT1), and transcription factors (CUP2 and
