Fba1p is a potential antifungal target because it is essential in yeast and because fungal and human aldolases differ significantly. To test the validity of Fba1p as an antifungal target, we have examined the effects of depleting this enzyme in the major fungal pathogen\n                    <jats:italic>Candida albicans<\/jats:italic>\n                    . Using a methionine\/cysteine-conditional mutant (\n                    <jats:italic>MET3-FBA1\/fba1<\/jats:italic>\n                    ), we have shown that Fba1p is required for the growth of\n                    <jats:italic>C. albicans<\/jats:italic>\n                    . However, Fba1p must be depleted to below 5% of wild-type levels before growth is blocked. Furthermore, Fba1p depletion exerts static rather than cidal effects upon\n                    <jats:italic>C. albicans<\/jats:italic>\n                    . Fba1p is a relatively abundant and stable protein in\n                    <jats:italic>C. albicans<\/jats:italic>\n                    , and hence, Fba1p levels decay relatively slowly following\n                    <jats:italic>MET3-FBA1<\/jats:italic>\n                    shutoff. Taken together, our observations can account for our observation that the virulence of\n                    <jats:italic>MET3-FBA1\/fba1<\/jats:italic>\n                    cells is only partially attenuated in the mouse model of systemic candidiasis. We conclude that an antifungal drug directed against Fba1p would have to be potent to be effective.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1128\/ec.00115-06","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2006,8,8]],"date-time":"2006-08-08T20:18:27Z","timestamp":1155068307000},"page":"1371-1377","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1128\/asmj-crossmark-policy-page","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":81,"title":["Effects of Depleting the Essential Central Metabolic Enzyme Fructose-1,6-Bisphosphate Aldolase on the Growth and Viability of\n                    <i>Candida albicans<\/i>\n                    : Implications for Antifungal Drug Target Discovery"],"prefix":"10.1128","volume":"5","author":[{"given":"Alexandra","family":"Rodaki","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Aberdeen Fungal Group, School of Medical Sciences, Institute of Medical Sciences, University of Aberdeen, Aberdeen AB25 2ZD, United Kingdom"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Tim","family":"Young","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Discovery Biology, Pfizer Ltd., Sandwich, Kent CT13 9NJ, United Kingdom"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alistair J.
