Refined Pichia pastoris reference genome sequence.

ABSTRACT: Strains of the species Komagataella phaffii are the most frequently used "Pichia pastoris" strains employed for recombinant protein production as well as studies on peroxisome biogenesis, autophagy and secretory pathway analyses. Genome sequencing of several different P. pastoris strains has provided the foundation for understanding these cellular functions in recent genomics, transcriptomics and proteomics experiments. This experimentation has identified mistakes, gaps and incorrectly annotated open reading frames in the previously published draft genome sequences. Here, a refined reference genome is presented, generated with genome and transcriptome sequencing data from multiple P. pastoris strains. Twelve major sequence gaps from 20 to 6000 base pairs were closed and 5111 out of 5256 putative open reading frames were manually curated and confirmed by RNA-seq and published LC-MS/MS data, including the addition of new open reading frames (ORFs) and a reduction in the number of spliced genes from 797 to 571. One chromosomal fragment of 76kbp between two previous gaps on chromosome 1 and another 134kbp fragment at the end of chromosome 4, as well as several shorter fragments needed re-orientation. In total more than 500 positions in the genome have been corrected. This reference genome is presented with new chromosomal numbering, positioning ribosomal repeats at the distal ends of the four chromosomes, and includes predicted chromosomal centromeres as well as the sequence of two linear cytoplasmic plasmids of 13.1 and 9.5kbp found in some strains of P. pastoris.

Project description:Over the past three decades, due to the universal application of Pichia yeast in the fermentation industry as well as the establishment of Pichia pastoris fermentation process for more than 30 years, the technology of the whole process has become very mature and has now reached a stagnated period of growth. However, studies and research conducted on the genomics of the classic fermentation process and the uncovering of the biological phenomena in the fermentation process from the point of view of high-throughput gene or protein is still in its early stages, and there is still insufficient data within this field. First, in collaboration with Agilent Company, we designed and prepared an expression microarray that could be used for the detection of Pichia pastoris transcriptomics. The transcriptomic changes in the five key technology steps (time points), during the fermentation process of Pichia pastoris would then be detected with the aid of an expression microarray. The five key steps of technology described above formed two important biological processes, namely, the limiting carbon source replacement and secondly, the fermentative production of exogenous proteins. The biological phenomena involved in these two processes were displayed and analyzed at the transcriptional level. In addition to this, with regard to the most important function in the fermentation process of Pichia pastoris, oxid-reduction, the metabolic drift process was analyzed and the important genes that might dominate the changes in the metabolic flux were discovered creatively by using the function tree method in this paper. This study was undertaken from the point of view of the transcriptome and the biological phenomena in the fermemntation process of Pichia pastoris. Both of which, were thoroughly explained during this study. The hope is for many more researchers to optimize the strain fermentation process, to produce proteins at the genetic level, as well as providing and obtaining new perspectives and detailed scientific data for the continued development within this field.
