physiological function |
disruption of the TPS2 gene encoding the only trehalose 6-phosphate phosphatase activity in Candida albicans causes a pleiotropic defective phenotype, maintaining the cell wall integrity and the ability to form chlamydospores. A homozygous tps2Delta/tps2Delta shows reduced growth at high temperatures and a marked sensitivity to heatshock and severe oxidative exposure. Exponential tps2Delta null cells display an adaptive response to oxidative stress as well as cross-tolerance between temperature and oxidative stress. Differential measurement of trehalose and trehalose 6-phosphate, revealed a significant accumulation of trehalose 6-phosphate in tps2Delta cells, which is enhanced after oxidative exposure. The level of trehalose 6-phosphate in parental cells is virtually undetectable, and oxidative treatment only induces the synthesis of free trehalose |
