Converging Roles of the Metal Transporter SMF11 and the Ferric Reductase FRE1 in Iron Homeostasis of Candida albicans
Pathogenic fungi must appropriately sense the host availability of essential metals such as Fe. In Candida albicans and other yeasts, sensing of Fe involves mitochondrial Fe-S clusters. Yeast mutants for Fe-S cluster assembly sense Fe limitation even when Fe is abundant and hyperaccumulate Fe. We observe this same disrupted Fe sensing with C. albicans mutants of SMF11, a NRAMP transporter of divalent metals. Mutants of smf11 hyperaccumulate both Mn and Fe and the elevated Mn is secondary to Fe overload. As with Fe-S biogenesis mutants, smf11∆/∆ mutants show upregulation of ferric reductases that are normally repressed under high Fe, and Fe import is activated. However, unlike Fe-S biogenesis mutants, smf11∆/∆ mutants show no defects in mitochondrial Fe-S enzymes. Intriguingly, this exact condition of disrupted Fe sensing without inhibiting Fe-S clusters occurs with C. albicans fre1∆/∆ mutants encoding a ferric reductase. Mutants of fre1 and smf11 display similar perturbations in the cell wall, in filamentation and in the ROS burst of morphogenesis, a Fe-dependent process. As with FRE1, SMF11 is important for virulence in a mouse model for disseminated candidiasis. We propose a model in which FRE1 and SMF11 operate outside the mitochondrial Fe-S pathway to donate ferrous Fe for Fe sensing.
期刊介绍:
Molecular Microbiology, the leading primary journal in the microbial sciences, publishes molecular studies of Bacteria, Archaea, eukaryotic microorganisms, and their viruses.
Research papers should lead to a deeper understanding of the molecular principles underlying basic physiological processes or mechanisms. Appropriate topics include gene expression and regulation, pathogenicity and virulence, physiology and metabolism, synthesis of macromolecules (proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, polysaccharides, etc), cell biology and subcellular organization, membrane biogenesis and function, traffic and transport, cell-cell communication and signalling pathways, evolution and gene transfer. Articles focused on host responses (cellular or immunological) to pathogens or on microbial ecology should be directed to our sister journals Cellular Microbiology and Environmental Microbiology, respectively.
