Abstract

The fungal cell wall provides protection and structure, and is an important target for antifungal compounds. A MAP kinase cascade termed the cell wall integrity (CWI) pathway regulates transcriptional responses to cell wall damage. Here we describe a posttranscriptional pathway that plays an important complementary role. We discovered that the RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) Mrn1 and Nab6 specifically target the 3’ UTRs of a largely overlapping set of cell wall-related mRNAs. These mRNAs are downregulated in the absence of Nab6, indicating a function in target mRNA stabilization. Nab6 acts in parallel to CWI signaling to maintain appropriate expression of cell wall genes during stress. Cells lacking both pathways are hypersensitive to antifungal compounds targeting the cell wall. Deletion of MRN1 partially alleviates growth defects associated with Δnab6 and Mrn1 has an opposing function in mRNA destabilization. Our results uncover a novel posttranscriptional pathway which mediates cellular resistance to antifungal compounds.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
