The proteasome regulator Rpn4 controls antifungal drug tolerance by coupling protein homeostasis with metabolic responses to drug stress.

Fungal pathogens overcome antifungal drug therapy by classic resistance mechanisms, such as increased efflux or changes to the drug target. However, even when a fungal strain is susceptible, trailing or persistent microbial growth in the presence of an antifungal drug can contribute to therapeutic f...
