Utilization of target-specific, hypersensitive strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to determine the mode of action of antifungal compounds.

Abstract

Target-specific hypersusceptible strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae were used to screen antifungal compounds. Two novel Erg7p inhibitors were identified, providing proof of principle of the approach taken. However, observed hypersensitivities to antifungals acting via other targets imply that use of this tool to identify the mode of action requires significant deconvolution.
