RECOMBINANT PROTEIN PRODUCTION IN YEAST, cilt.1923, ss.97-112, 2019 (SCI-Expanded)
The methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris (Komagataella phaffii) is used as an expression system for recombinant protein production for a variety of applications. It grows rapidly on inexpensive media containing methanol, glucose, glycerol, or ethanol as a sole carbon source. P. pastoris makes many posttranslational modifications and produces recombinant proteins either intracellularly or extracellularly. Because of these properties, P. pastoris has become a highly preferred host organism for biotechnology, pharmaceutical industry, and researchers.
