[Effects of polyene antibiotics and detergents on cell membranes of polyene-sensitive and polyene-resistant strains of Candida albicans]. 1977

N N Solov'eva, and V V Nikiforov, and L N Kaprel'ian Ostrovskii, and I I Belousova, and I M Tereshin

Various detergents and EPR-probes of 4,4-dimethylspiro[5alpha-androstan-17beta-ol-3,2-(1,3-oxazolidin-3-oxyl)]2CH3OH; 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpalmitoyl-amidopiperidine-1-oxyl and 2-(14-carboxytetradecyl)-2-ethyl-4,4-dimethyl-3-oxazolidinoxyl were used to establish structural differences in the membrane of polyene-sensitive and polyene-resistant strains of C. albicans. It was shown that the type of protein-lipid interactions is modified by the changes in the sterol component of the polyene-resistant strain membranes. This manifests itself in a decrease in sensitivity of membrane alkaline phosphatase for levorin and the detergents, as well as in the alteration of the lipid fluidity pattern of the polyene-resistant strain membranes as compared to the membranes of original culture of C. albicans. Treatment of polyene-sensitive strain membranes with amphotericine B causes more intensive protein-lipid interactions, which is not observed in case of the polyene-resistant strain. It is assumed that C. albicans resistance to polyenes is due to the existence of strong protein-lipid interactions in the membrane coupled with ergosterol substitution by other sterol components.

D004578 Electron Spin Resonance Spectroscopy A technique applicable to the wide variety of substances which exhibit paramagnetism because of the magnetic moments of unpaired electrons. The spectra are useful for detection and identification, for determination of electron structure, for study of interactions between molecules, and for measurement of nuclear spins and moments. (From McGraw-Hill Encyclopedia of Science and Technology, 7th edition) Electron nuclear double resonance (ENDOR) spectroscopy is a variant of the technique which can give enhanced resolution. Electron spin resonance analysis can now be used in vivo, including imaging applications such as MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING.
