چکیده

Contour-clamped homogeneous electrophoresis and an embedded-agarose method of sample preparation were combined to carry out an analysis of the chromosome sets of nine strains of Hansenula polymorpha (syn. Pichia angusta). Chromosomal DNA molecules could be separated into a series of bands ranging, approximately, from 650 up to 2,200 kb in size. Polymorphism of the electrophoretic pattern was demonstrated among the strains investigated in this study. Cross-hybridization between H. polymorpha and Saccharomyces cerevisiae ribosomal DNA was also observed.

Isolation and characterization of mutated alcohol oxidases from the yeast Hansenula polymorpha with decreased affinity toward substrates and their use as selective elements of an amperometric biosensor

BACKGROUND Accurate, rapid, and economic on-line analysis of ethanol is very desirable. However, available biosensors achieve saturation at very low ethanol concentrations and thus demand the time and labour consuming procedure of sample dilution. RESULTS Hansenula polymorpha (Pichia angusta) mutant strains resistant to allyl alcohol in methanol medium were selected. Such strains possessed de...

Identification of hexose transporter-like sensor HXS1 and functional hexose transporter HXT1 in the methylotrophic yeast Hansenula polymorpha.

We identified in the methylotrophic yeast Hansenula polymorpha (syn. Pichia angusta) a novel hexose transporter homologue gene, HXS1 (hexose sensor), involved in transcriptional regulation in response to hexoses, and a regular hexose carrier gene, HXT1 (hexose transporter). The Hxs1 protein exhibits the highest degree of primary sequence similarity to the Saccharomyces cerevisiae transporter-li...

Expression of granulocyte colony stimulating factor (GCSF) in Hansenula polymorpha

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES During past decades Hansenula polymorpha has attracted global attention for the expression of recombinant proteins due to its high growth rate, minimal nutritional porequirements and use of methanol as a low cost inducer. MATERIALS AND METHODS The corresponding nucleotide sequences for the expression of heterologous genes in Hansenula poylmorpha were extracted and as...

Comparison of biochemical properties of recombinant endoglucanase II of Trichoderma reesei in methylotrophic yeasts, Pichia pastoris and Hansenula polymorpha

Bioconversion of cellulosic material into bioethanol needs cellulase complex enzymesthat contain endoglucanase, exoglucanase and beta glucosidase. One of the most important organisms that produce cellulases is the filamentous fungi, Trichoderma reesei which able to secrete large amounts of different cellulases. These enzymes are probably the most widely used cellulases industrially, however, th...

Comparison of biochemical properties of recombinant phytase expression in the favorable methylotrophic platforms of Pichia pastoris and Hansenula polymorpha

Phytic acid is the dominant form of phosphorous in plant seeds. However, phytic acid cannot beutilized by animals and causes them serious phosphate deficiency. Utilization of phytase as ananimal feed additive can affect liberation of phosphor and its mineral availability. In this study,heterologous expression of the A. niger phyA gene was investigated in the methylotrophic yeastsP. pastoris and...
