Redox Engineering by Ectopic Overexpression of NADH Kinase in Recombinant Pichia pastoris (Komagataella phaffii): Impact on Cell Physiology and Recombinant Production of Secreted Proteins.

ABSTRACT: High-level expression and secretion of heterologous proteins in yeast cause an increased energy demand, which may result in altered metabolic flux distributions. Moreover, recombinant protein overproduction often results in endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and oxidative stress, causing deviations from the optimal NAD(P)H regeneration balance. In this context, overexpression of genes encoding enzymes catalyzing endogenous NADPH-producing reactions, such as the oxidative branch of the pentose phosphate pathway, has been previously shown to improve protein production in Pichia pastoris (syn. Komagataella spp.). In this study, we evaluate the overexpression of the Saccharomyces cerevisiaePOS5-encoded NADH kinase in a recombinant P. pastoris strain as an alte
