ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters play important roles in drug efflux, but some may also function in cellular detoxification. The Pdr15p ABC protein is the closest homologue of the multidrug efflux transporter Pdr5p, which mediates pleiotropic drug resistance to hundreds of unrelated compounds. In this study, we show that the plasma membrane protein Pdr15p displays limited drug transport capacity, mediating chloramphenicol and detergent tolerance. Interestingly, Pdr15p becomes most abundant when cells exit the exponential growth phase, whereas its closest homologue, Pdr5p, disappears after exponential growth. Furthermore, in contrast to Pdr5p, Pdr15p is strongly induced by various stress conditions including heat shock, low pH, weak acids, or high osmolarity. PDR15 induction bypasses the Pdr1p/Pdr3p regulators but requires the general stress regulator Msn2p, which directly decorates the stress response elements in the PDR15 promoter. Remarkably, however, Pdr15p induction bypasses upstream components of the high osmolarity glycerol (HOG) pathway including the Hog1p and Pbs2p kinases as well as the dedicated HOG cell surface sensors. Our data provide evidence for a novel upstream branch of the general stress response pathway activating Msn2p. In addition, the results demonstrate a crosstalk between stress response and the pleiotropic drug resistance network.
