- W2804450206 abstract "ABSTRACT Extensive 5’ untranslated regions (UTR) are a hallmark of transcripts determining hyphal morphogenesis in Candida albicans. The major transcripts of the EFG1 gene, which are responsible for cellular morphogenesis and metabolism, contain a 5’ UTR of up to 1170 nt. Deletion analyses of the 5’ UTR revealed a 218 nt sequence that is required for production of the Efg1 protein and its functions in filamentation, without lowering the level and integrity of the EFG1 transcript. Polysomal analyses revealed that the 218 nt 5’ UTR sequence is required for efficient translation of the Efg1 protein. Replacement of the EFG1 ORF by the heterologous reporter gene CaCBGluc confirmed the positive regulatory importance of the identified 5’ UTR sequence. In contrast to other reported transcripts containing extensive 5’ UTR sequences, these results indicate the positive translational function of the 5’ UTR sequence in the EFG1 transcript, which is observed in context of the native EFG1 promoter. The results suggest that the 5’ UTR recruits regulatory factors, possibly during emergence of the native transcript, which aid in translation of the EFG1 transcript. IMPORTANCE Many of the virulence traits that make Candida albicans an important human fungal pathogen are regulated on a transcriptional level. Here we report an important regulatory contribution of translation, which is exerted by the extensive 5’ untranslated regulatory sequence (5’ UTR) of the transcript for the protein Efg1, which determines growth, metabolism and filamentation in the fungus. Presence of the 5’ UTR is required for efficient translation of Efg1, to promote filamentation. Because transcripts for many relevant regulators contain extensive 5’ UTR sequences, it appears that virulence of C. albicans depends on the combination of transcriptional and translation regulatory mechanisms." @default.
