Candida albicans and C. glabrata express exporters of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) superfamily and address them to their plasma membrane to expel azole antifungals, which cancels out their action and allows the yeast to become multidrug resistant (MDR). In a way to understand this mechanism of defense, we describe the purification and characterization of Cdr1, the membrane ABC exporter mainly responsible for such phenotype in both species. Cdr1 proteins were functionally expressed in the baker yeast, tagged at their C-terminal end with either a His-tag for the glabrata version, cgCdr1-His, or a green fluorescent protein (GFP) preceded by a proteolytic cleavage site for the albicans version, caCdr1-P-GFP. A membrane Cdr1-enriched fraction was then prepared to assay several detergents and stabilizers, probing their level of extraction and the ATPase activity of the proteins as a functional marker. Immobilized metal-affinity and size-exclusion chromatographies (IMAC, SEC) were then carried out to isolate homogenous samples. Overall, our data show that although topologically and phylogenetically close, both proteins display quite distinct behaviors during the extraction and purification steps, and qualify cgCdr1 as a good candidate to characterize this type of proteins for developing future inhibitors of their azole antifungal efflux activity. •This paper describes the purification of a clinically relevant drug transporter of pathogenic fungi•It includes a detailed methodology on working with membrane proteins, including detergent screening, purification and characterization•The use of fluorescence quenching allows to measure the affinity of the protein for its ligands•NanoDifferential Scanning Fluorimetry showed a differential stabilization of the protein, thus making it an interesting tool to screen for future inhibitors•The purification of an ATPase active protein paves the way for structural studies of these transporters.
