Polyene-resistant mutants of Aspergillus fennelliae: identification of sterols.
Four mutants strains of Aspergillus fennelliae resistant to various polyene antibiotics have been analyzed for their sterol content. The mutant strains contained Delta(7,22,24(28))-ergostatrien-3beta-o1 and Delta(7,22)-ergostadien-3beta-o1 as the major sterols, whereas the wild types contained ergosterol, indicating that the mutants contain metabolic blocks for C(5)-C(6) dehydrogenation and C(2...
متن کاملAculeacin A resistant mutants of Candida albicans.
Mutants of Candida albicans resistant to aculeacin A, a yeast cell-wall inhibitor, were isolated after mutagenesis with ultraviolet light. The parental strain was sensitive to 0.1 approximately 0.5 microgram/ml of the antibiotic. In contrast, the minimum inhibitory concentration for the mutants ranged from 50 to 200 microgram/ml. Except for papulocandin, another cell-wall inhibitor, the antibio...
متن کاملCandida albicans biofilm-defective mutants.
Biofilm formation plays a key role in the life cycles and subsistence of many microorganisms. For the human fungal pathogen Candida albicans, biofilm development is arguably a virulence trait, because medical implants that serve as biofilm substrates are significant risk factors for infection. The development of C. albicans biofilms in vitro proceeds through an early phase, in which yeast cells...

Bacteriol. 89:1533-1539. 1965.-Strains of Candida albicans resistant to the polyenes candidin and amphotericin B, but not to nystatin, were developed by sub-culturing the organism in gradually increasing concentrations of the an...
متن کاملGenetic analysis of Candida albicans morphological mutants.
In contrast to some other strains, Candida albicans 1001 gave rise, upon UV irradiation, to mutants displaying a 'rough colony' morphology associated with a permanent alteration in morphogenesis which determined growth of the cells mostly as pseudohyphae. One of these mutants, C. albicans 1001FR, could form sectored (rough/smooth) colonies spontaneously, and with increasing frequency by treatme...
