Role of a Candida albicans Nrm1/Whi5 homologue in cell cycle gene expression and DNA replication stress response

Abstract: Summary To explore cell cycle regulation in the dimorphic fungus Candida albicans, we identified and characterized CaNrm1, a C. albicans homologue of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae Whi5 and Nrm1 transcription inhibitors that, analogous to mammalian Rb, regulate the cell cycle transcription programme during the G1 phase. CaNRM1 is able to complement the phenotypes of both whi5 and nrm1 mutants in S. cerevisiae. In C. albicans, global transcription analysis of the CaNRM1 deletion mutant reveals a preferential indu… Show more

“…5A and 6A) with homologs in some very distantly related genera, including members of the Basidiomycetes (data not shown). In fact, an ortholog of Nrm1/Whi5 that contains a GTB motif was recently identified in Candida albicans (20). Together, these observations suggest that the GTB motif is a functional module that, at least based upon the behavior of Whi5 and Nrm1, is necessary and sufficient for binding to the G 1 /S transcription factor complexes.…”

“…That motif defines a protein family in S. cerevisiae that includes Whi5, Nrm1, and Srl3, a CDK-binding protein of unknown function (19). Interestingly, a protein that appears to behave as a functional homolog of both Nrm1 and Whi5 was recently identified in Candida albicans based upon the presence of that motif, which appears to be extensively conserved among fungal species (20). The motif has also been identified via bioinformatics approaches and has been named the "Whi5-like" motif (21).…”

“…The transcriptional programs characterizing the cell cycle G1/S transition in C. albicans (C ote et al 2009) were hyperactivated in dot6 mutant, which is a further support of the role of Dot6 as a negative regulator of G1/S transcription and Start ( Figure 3A ). Interestingly, dot6 upregulated transcripts showed a significant correlation with those activated in the deletion mutant of the negative regulator of Start in C. albicans , Nrm1 (O fir et al 2012; S ellam et al 2016).…”
