The yeast transcription factors Pdr1 and Pdr3 control pleiotropic drug resistance (PDR) development, since they regulate expression of ATP‐binding cassette (ABC) drug efflux pumps through binding tocis‐acting sites known as PDREs ( R esponsive lements). In this report, we show by Northern blotting, gel shift mobility assays and DNase I footprinting that transcription of the ABC genesPDR10andPDR15is also controlled by Pdr1 and Pdr3. In addition, in vitro band shift assays demonstrate that a GST‐Pdr1 fusion protein can bind to the PDREs ofPDR10andPDR15. DNase I footprinting allowed the identification of the precise PDRE binding motifs, indicating the presence of a novel slightly degenerate PDRE motif in thePDR15promoter. Finally,PDR10andPDR15mRNA levels vary dramatically in abundance in isogenic yeast strains carrying either Δpdr1, Δpdr3and Δpdr1Δpdr3deletions orpdr1‐3andpdr3‐2gain‐of‐function mutations, demonstrating that bothPDR10andPDR15are new members of the yeast PDR network.
