The uptake of pyrimidines and their derivatives into Candida glabrata and Candida albicans was measured using a novel technique in which the cells were rapidly separated from their suspending medium by centrifugation through a layer of an inert oil. The uptake of [14C]cytosine was linear for 30 s for all concentrations of pyrimidine tested. In C. glabrata but not C. albicans cytosine transport was mediated by both a high affinity (Km 0.8 +/- 0.1 microM), low capacity [V 40 +/- 4 pmol (microliters cell water)-1 s-1] and a low affinity [Km 240 +/- 35 microM], high capacity system [V 770 +/- 170 pmol (microliters cell water)-1 s-1]. The cytosine permease in C. glabrata was specific for cytosine and 5-fluorocytosine. In C. albicans there was only one cytosine transport system [Km 2.4 +/- 0.3 microM; V 50 +/- 4 pmol (microliters cell water)-1 s-1]; this system also transported adenine, guanine and hypoxanthine. Differences in nucleoside transport were also observed for C. glabrata and C. albicans, with the uridine permease in C. glabrata transporting only uridine and 5-fluorouridine whereas cytidine and adenosine were also transported by the uridine permease in C. albicans. Studies on the effect of nucleoside analogues on uridine transport in C. glabrata demonstrated the importance of the sugar moiety in determining the specificity of transport, with a hydroxyl residue on C-2 being apparently essential for transport.
