Abstract

Two novel isolates of Candida glabrata exhibiting reduced sensitivity to amphotericin B (MIC, 8 μg ml(-1)) were found to be ERG2 mutants, wherein Δ(8)-sterol intermediates comprised >90% of the total cellular sterol fraction. Both harbored an alteration at Thr(121) in ERG2; the corresponding residue (Thr(119)) in Saccharomyces cerevisiae is essential for sterol Δ8-Δ7 isomerization. This constitutes the first report of C. glabrata harboring mutations in ERG2 and exhibiting reduced sensitivity to amphotericin B.
