A set of aspartyl protease-deficient strains for improved expression of heterologous proteins in Kluyveromyces lactis
Secretion of recombinant proteins is a common strategy for heterologous protein expression using the yeast Kluyveromyces lactis. However, a common problem is degradation of a target recombinant protein by secretory pathway aspartyl proteases. In this study, we identified five putative pfam00026 aspartyl proteases encoded by the K. lactis genome. A set of selectable marker-free protease deletion...
متن کاملImproved method for assembly of linear yeast expression cassettes using NEBuilder HiFi DNA Assembly Master Mix
Heterologous protein production in yeast expression systems (i.e., Kluyveromyces lactis and Pichia pastoris) normally involves insertion of a linear expression cassette into a target locus in the host genome (1-3). Typically, an expression cassette is assembled in E. coli by first cloning a gene of interest into a circular expression vector (Figure 1A). The expression cassette comprises DNA enc...
متن کاملA novel, lactase-based selection and strain improvement strategy for recombinant protein expression in Kluyveromyces lactis
BACKGROUND The Crabtree-negative yeast species Kluyveromyces lactis has been established as an attractive microbial expression system for recombinant proteins at industrial scale. Its LAC genes allow for utilization of the inexpensive sugar lactose as a sole source of carbon and energy. Lactose efficiently induces the LAC4 promoter, which can be used to drive regulated expression of heterologou...
متن کاملHeterologous expression of glucose oxidase in the yeast Kluyveromyces marxianus
BACKGROUND In spite of its advantageous physiological properties for bioprocess applications, the use of the yeast Kluyveromyces marxianus as a host for heterologous protein production has been very limited, in constrast to its close relative Kluyveromyces lactis. In the present work, the model protein glucose oxidase (GOX) from Aspergillus niger was cloned into K. marxianus CBS 6556 and into K...
متن کاملInducible amplification of gene copy number and heterologous protein production in the yeast Kluyveromyces lactis.
Heterologous protein production can be doubled by increasing the copy number of the corresponding heterologous gene. We constructed a host-vector system in the yeast Kluyveromyces lactis that was able to induce copy number amplification of pKD1 plasmid-based vectors upon expression of an integrated copy of the plasmid recombinase gene. We increased the production and secretion of two heterologo...
