Regulation of heme utilization and homeostasis in Candida albicans

N. Andrawes, Z. Weissman, M. Pinsky, S. Moshe, J. Berman, D. Kornitzer

This study identifies Huf1 as a heme-responsive transcription factor in C. albicans that regulates both heme homeostasis and uptake from the environment.

Ferric reductase-related proteins mediate fungal heme acquisition

U. Roy, S. Yaish, Z. Weissman, M. Pinsky, S. Dey, G. Horev, D. Kornitzer

The paper identifies Frp1 and Frp2 as proteins required for heme utilization in Candida albicans and shows they form a functional complex with CFEM hemophores for extracellular heme uptake.

Using genetically encoded heme sensors to probe the mechanisms of heme uptake and homeostasis in Candida albicans

Z. Weissman, M. Pinsky, R. K. Donegan, A. R. Reddi, D. Kornitzer

This study uses genetically encoded heme sensors to show that C. albicans takes up heme from hemoglobin and hemin via different pathways and uses Hmx1 to prevent heme toxicity.
