Cloning and Expression of Aspergillus tamarii FS132 Lipase Gene in Pichia pastoris

A lipase gene (atl) was cloned from Aspergillus tamarii FS132 for the first time. The gene was found to have an open reading frame of 1024 base pairs (bp), and the coding region of the gene contained two introns (51 bp and 52 bp). Multi-alignment analysis of the deduced amino acid sequence indicated high homology between the enzyme and mono-and diacylglycerol lipases from fungi Aspergillus. The recombinant lipase was expressed in Pichia pastoris GS115 cells. The recombinant lipase was found to have a molecular mass of 36.7 kDa, and it exhibited lipase activity of 20 U/mL in culture supernatant when tributyrin was used as the substrate.

Enhanced heterologous expression of Trichoderma reesei Cel5A/Cel6A in Pichia pastoris with extracellular co‐expression of Vitreoscilla hemoglobin

BACKGROUND

The deficiency of family 5 endoglucanase (Cel5A) and family 6 cellobiohydrolase (Cel6A) has become a key limiting factor on cellulase enzymatic hydrolysis in bioprocessing of cellulosic biomass. To improve the production of Trichoderma reesei Cel5A / Cel6A, a Vitreoscilla hemoglobin (VHb) gene was tried to co‐express extracellularly for the first time with Cel5A / Cel6A in Pichia pastoris GS115.

RESULTS

Newly constructed recombinant of co‐expressing Cel5A / Cel6A extracellularly with VHb was consistent with the single expression at some key variables of culture condition, i.e. inoculum size, initial pH, culture temperature and methanol concentration. Comparing their single expression, the CMCase activity of co‐expressed Cel5A and Cel6A enzymes enhanced by 40% and 30%, respectively. With high‐cell‐density fed‐batch (HCDFB) fermentation, the co‐expressed Cel5A enzyme activity was 366.8 U mL^‐1 with 4.3 g L^‐1 protein content and the Cel6A enzyme activity reached 1.3 U mL^‐1 with 2.23 g L^‐1 protein content. The two co‐expressed enzyme activities were enhanced by 35% and 20%, respectively, compared with the single expression.

CONCLUSION

VHb protein capable of binding oxygen can be successfully co‐expressed extracellularly with other target proteins. The co‐expression of VHb with recombinant Cel5A / Cel6A is efficient at improving oxygen‐limited condition and thus enzyme production in both shake‐flask and HCDFB fermentation. © 2017 Society of Chemical Industry

Expression of a Deschampsia antarctica Desv. Polypeptide with Lipase Activity in a Pichia pastoris Vector

The current study isolated and characterized the Lip3F9 polypeptide sequence of Deschampsia antarctica Desv. (GeneBank Accession Number {"type":"entrez-nucleotide","attrs":{"text":"JX846628","term_id":"443427649","term_text":"JX846628"}}JX846628), which was found to be comprised of 291 base pairs and was, moreover, expressed in Pichia pastoris X-33 cells. The enzyme was secreted after 24 h of P. pastoris culture incubation and through induction with methanol. The expressed protein showed maximum lipase activity (35 U/L) with an optimal temperature of 37 °C. The lipase-expressed enzyme lost 50% of its specific activity at 25 °C, a behavior characteristic of a psychrotolerant enzyme. Recombinant enzyme activity was measured in the presence of ionic and non-ionic detergents, and a decrease in enzyme activity was detected for all concentrations of ionic and non-ionic detergents assessed.     

Model‐based specific growth rate control for Pichia pastoris to improve recombinant protein production

Constant specific growth rate control in the methanol growth phase was investigated for the fed‐batch cultivation of Pichia pastoris expressing recombinant human serum albumin (rHSA). The methanol feeding strategy was determined based on an earlier proposed macrokinetic model to maintain the specific growth rate at preset levels. The experimental results demonstrate that the control strategy of constant specific growth rate is more effective than that of constant feeding rate to maximize production. Furthermore, the most productive setpoint of the specific growth rate is found between 0.005 and 0.006 h^?1, which yields protein concentrations higher than 5 g l^?1 at 160 h. In addition, a setpoint of 0.008 h^?1 is suggested as the upper limit for specific growth rate control for the given expression system. Copyright © 2005 Society of Chemical Industry

Alcohol oxidase hybrid oligomers formed in vivo and in vitro

Cell‐free extract prepared from methanol‐grown cells of the methylotrophic yeast Pichia methanolica showed nine multiple alcohol oxidase (AOD) bands on active staining in native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Their molecular basis was investigated and two AOD‐encoding genes, MOD1 and MOD2, were cloned from P. methanolica genome. When the two genes were expressed in a heterologous host, an alcohol oxidase‐depleted strain of Candida boidinii(aod1Δ strain), both MOD1 and MOD2 partially complemented growth defect of the host strain on methanol. While expression of either MOD1 or MOD2 in C. boidinii aod1Δ strain gave a single AOD band corresponding to the band with the largest and smallest mobility among the nine AOD bands, respectively, co‐expression of MOD1 and MOD2 resulted in multiple band formation. Mixed oligomerization of Mod1p and Mod2p in vitro also gave nine multiple bands. From these results, we concluded that the nine multiple forms of AOD observed on native–PAGE represent two homo‐octamers and seven hetero‐octamers of Mod1p and Mod2p. Using this zymogram analysis, we also found that Mod1p was preferably produced at low methanol concentrations in the media, while Mod2p was produced at higher methanol concentrations. This shows distinct regulatory features of the two AOD‐encoding genes in this methylotrophic yeast. Copyright © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
