The Cryptococcus neoformans ILV2 gene, encoding acetolactate synthase, was identified by complementation of a Saccharomyces cerevisiae ilv2 mutant. C. neoformans is highly resistant to the commercially available acetolactate synthase inhibitor, sulfometuron methyl (SM). Expression of C. neoformans ILV2 in S. cerevisiae conferred SM resistance, indicating that the SM resistance of C. neoformans is due, at least in part, to C. neoformans Ilv2p. The C. neoformans ILV2 gene was disrupted. The ilv2 mutants were auxotrophic for isoleucine and valine and the auxotrophy was satisfied by these amino acids only when proline, and not ammonium, was the nitrogen source, indicating nitrogen regulation of amino acid transport. ilv2 mutants rapidly lost viability at 37 degrees C and when starved for isoleucine and valine. Consistent with these phenotypes, an ilv2 mutant was avirulent and unable to survive in mice. Because C. neoformans Ilv2p is required for virulence and survival in vivo, inhibitors of branched-chain amino acid biosynthesis may make valuable antifungal agents."xsd:string |
