Abstract

In recent years, mycelial fungi have faced competition from recombinant yeast as producers of feed enzymes. An intensive study on genetic diversity identified the yeast genes encoding feed enzymes, the specific activity of which is much higher than that in mycelial fungi. In addition, these genes were expressed in yeast much more efficiently than in mycelial fungi. The use of yeast recombinant producers allowed the expansion of the production of a line of industrial enzymes with a significant reduction in their cost. The advantages of yeast producers of recombinant enzymes include the ability to obtain monoenzymes, which are part of various enzyme complexes used for different purposes. Pichia pastoris methylotrophic yeast is the most attractive subject for the creation of recombinant protein-producing strains.
