Transcription factor Hap2p regulates antioxidant stress responses to maintain miconazole resistance in Candida albicans by Yulin Qin, Quanzhen Lv, Hongtao Xu, Yongbing Cao, Bing Han

“…HAP2 disruption also decreased efflux-mediated resistance of C. albicans, as demonstrated by a significant decrease in Cdr1p expression and a slight decrease in Mdr1p expression in hap2Δ/Δ strains under the action of MCZ. The above results indicate that the transcription factor Hap2p was required for the resistance of C. albicans to azoles, which could provide a new strategy to solve the clinical azoles resistance.…”
