2.A.1.12.4
Jen1 of 541 aas and 12 TMSs. Zt is a monocarboxylate (lactate) uptake porter that is upregulated following the phagocytosis of Candida albicans cells by neutrophils and macrophages. It may be important for virulence (Soares-Silva et al. 2013; Vieira et al. 2010). It may be the only lactate uptake porter and is subject to glucose catabolite repression. However, growth on lactate affects biofilm formation, morphology and susceptibility to fluconazole, and both Jen1 and Jen2 may play a role in these processes. Thus, the adaptation of Candida cells to the carbon source present in the host niches affects their pathogenicity (Alves et al. 2017; Alves et al. 2020).
