Pyruvate decarboxylase and thiamine biosynthetic genes are regulated differently by Pdc2 in S. cerevisiae and C. glabrata.

Understanding metabolism in the pathogen Candida glabrata is key to identifying new targets for antifungals. The thiamine biosynthetic (THI) pathway is partially defective in C. glabrata, but the transcription factor CgPdc2 upregulates some thiamine biosynthetic and transport genes. One of these gen...
