The SNF1 protein kinase signaling pathway, which is highly conserved in eukaryotic cells, is important for metabolic adaptations in the pathogenic yeast Candida albicans. However, so far, it has remained elusive how SNF1 controls the activity of one of its main effectors, the repressor protein Mig1 that inhibits the expression of genes required for the utilization of alternative carbon sources when glucose is available. In this study, we have identified multiple phosphorylation sites in Mig1 that contribute to its inactivation. Mutation of these sites strongly increased Mig1 repressor activity in the absence of SNF1, but SNF1 could still sufficiently inhibit the hyperactive Mig1 to enable growth on alternative carbon sources. These findings reveal features of Mig1 that are important for controlling its repressor activity. Furthermore, they demonstrate that both SNF1 and additional protein kinases regulate Mig1 in this pathogenic yeast.
