Pichia pastoris reference mix [mixed pool of Pichia pastoris cells sampled from various conditions including cells grown on glycerine, glucose and methanol, on full andminimal medium, in stationary and exponential growth phase, and in different stress states]
Project description:Pichia pastoris is a widely used yeast platform for heterologous protein production. Although increasing gene dosage is a powerful strategy to improve recombinant protein production, an excess in the number of gene copies often leads to decreased product yields and increased metabolic burden. In order to find the bottlenecks of this strategy, here we present a transcriptome profile comparison of a series of Pichia pastoris strains carrying a different gene dosage of the Rhizopus oryzae lipase (Rol) as a model protein. Cells were grown on a mixture of glycerol:methanol in chemostat cultures. 2 color experiment in reference design.
Project description:We analyzed the chromatin accessibility and nucleosome positioning by ATAC-seq of both null and transgene-expressing strains of Komagataella phaffii (Pichia pastoris) under different growth conditions. These data enabled identification of the features that determine performance of various integration sites for transgene expression. Understanding chromatin accessibility and nucleosome positioning can provide further clarity into gene regulation and expression broadly in this organism.
Project description:The regulation of gene expression in Pichia pastoris has so far involved study of transcription factors. However, there are factors other than transcription factors affecting mRNA synthesis such as coactivators, enhancers, and chromatin modifiers. This study is a first ever report on epigenetic regulation in Pichia pastoris where, a histone acetyltransferase is reported to regulate transcription of genes involved in utilization of alternate carbon sources. We employed RNA Seq to identify new targets of Gcn5 in methanol medium.
