Candida albicans biofilms are characterized by structural and cellular heterogeneity that confers antifungal resistance and immune evasion. Despite this, biofilm formation remains poorly understood. In this study, we used proteomic analysis to understand biofilm formation in C. albicans related to morphophysiological and architectural features. LC-MS/MS analysis revealed that 64 proteins were significantly modulated, of which 31 were upregulated and 33 were downregulated. The results indicate th ...[more]

Project description:Biofilm formation on medically implanted devices by Candida albicans poses a significant clinical challenge. Here we compared biofilm-associated gene expression in two clinical C. albicans isolates, SC5314 and WO-1, to identify shared gene regulatory responses that may be functionally relevant. Among the 50 genes most highly expressed in biofilms relative to planktonic (suspension-grown) cells, we were able to recover insertion mutations in 25 genes. We observed that 20 of the 25 mutants have altered biofilm-related properties, including cell-substrate adherence, cell-cell signaling, and azole susceptibility. We focused on the most highly up-regulated gene in biofilms, RHR2, which specifies the glycerol biosynthetic enzyme glycerol-3-phosphate phosphatase. Glycerol is 5-fold more abundant in biofilm cells than planktonic cells, and an rhr2D/D strain accumulates 2-fold less biofilm glycerol than the wild type. Under in vitro growth conditions, the rhr2D/D mutant has reduced biofilm biomass and reduced adherence to silicone. The rhr2D/D mutant is severely defective in biofilm formation in vivo, in a rat catheter infection model. Expression profiling of the rhr2D/D mutant indicates that it has reduced expression of cell surface adhesin genes ALS1, ALS3, and HWP1, as well as a large fraction of all other biofilm up-regulated genes. Reduced adhesin expression is the cause of the rhr2D/D mutant biofilm defect, because overexpression of ALS1, ALS3, or HWP1 restores biofilm formation ability to the mutant in vitro and in vivo. Our findings indicate that internal glycerol has a regulatory role in biofilm gene expression, and that adhesin genes are among the main functional Rhr2-regulated genes.
