Comparative proteomics analysis of Pichia pastoris cultivating in glucose and methanol.

ABSTRACT: The methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris (syn. Komagataella phaffii) has been extensively engineered for protein production, and is attracting attention as a chassis cell for methanol biotransformation toward production of small molecules. However, the relatively unclear methanol metabolism hampers the metabolic rewiring to improve the biosynthetic efficiency. We here performed a label-free quantitative proteomic analysis of Pichia pastoris when cultivated in minimal media containing methanol and glucose, respectively. There were 243, 158 up-regulated proteins and 244, 304 down-regulated proteins in log and stationary phase, respectively, when cultivated in methanol medium compared with that of glucose medium. Peroxisome enrichment further improved the characterization
