Codon optimization significantly improves the expression level of a keratinase gene in Pichia pastoris. [PDF]
The main keratinase (kerA) gene from the Bacillus licheniformis S90 was optimized by two codon optimization strategies and expressed in Pichia pastoris in order to improve the enzyme production compared to the preparations with the native kerA gene.

Species-Specific Differences in the Susceptibility of Fungi to the Antifungal Protein AFP Depend on C-3 Saturation of Glycosylceramides [PDF]
AFP is an antimicrobial peptide (AMP) produced by the filamentous fungus Aspergillus giganteus and is a very potent inhibitor of fungal growth that does not affect the viability of bacteria, plant, or mammalian cells.

Preparation of Pichia pastoris Expression Plasmids [PDF]
When planning any heterologous expression experiment, the very first critical step is related to the design of the overall strategy, hence to the selection of the most adapted expression vector. The very flexible Pichia pastoris system offers a broad range of possibilities for the production of secreted, endogenous or membrane proteins thanks to a ...

Comparative proteomics analysis of Pichia pastoris cultivating in glucose and methanol
The methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris (syn. Komagataella phaffii) has been extensively engineered for protein production, and is attracting attention as a chassis cell for methanol biotransformation toward production of small molecules.

Gonadotropins in the Russian Sturgeon: Their Role in Steroid Secretion and the Effect of Hormonal Treatment on Their Secretion. [PDF]
In the reproduction process of male and female fish, pituitary derived gonadotropins (GTHs) play a key role. To be able to specifically investigate certain functions of Luteinizing (LH) and Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) in Russian sturgeon ...

The autophagic degradation of cytosolic pools of peroxisomal proteins by a new selective pathway. [PDF]
Damaged or redundant peroxisomes and their luminal cargoes are removed by pexophagy, a selective autophagy pathway. In yeasts, pexophagy depends mostly on the pexophagy receptors, such as Atg30 for Pichia pastoris and Atg36 for Saccharomyces cerevisiae ...

Genotyping of recombinant Pichia pastoris strains [PDF]
AbstractA simplified amplified-fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) method was used to genotype Pichia pastoris strains obtained by transformation of P. pastoris strain GS115 with a single integration vector. A total of 14 transformants and 3 control strains were analyzed, which generated 16 different band patterns. A clonal variation was obtained after

Sterol 3β-glucosyltransferase biocatalysts with a range of selectivities, including selectivity for testosterone [PDF]
The main objectives of this work were to characterise a range of purified recombinant sterol 3β-glucosyltransferases and show that rational sampling of the diversity that exists within sterol 3β-glucosyltransferase sequence space can result in a range of

Metabolic engineering of Pichia pastoris
Besides its use for efficient production of recombinant proteins the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris (syn. Komagataella spp.) has been increasingly employed as a platform to produce metabolites of varying origin. We summarize here the impressive methodological developments of the last years to model and analyze the metabolism of P.
