Abstract

A Pichia pastoris yeast strain producing endo-l,4-β-xylanase from Paenibacillus brasilensis with an activity of 54,400 U/mL after 140 h of fermentation in a laboratory fermenter has been obtained. A number of approaches were used to increase the level of the xylanase production in this strain: optimization of the target gene codon composition, multiple integration of the expression cassette into the recipient strain chromosome using the Cre-lox recombination system, and also improving the heterologous protein folding via the overexpression of the HAC1i gene from Pichia pastoris. xylanase, xylan, Cre-lox system, HAC1p transcriptional activator, multicopy strain, Paenibacillus brasilensis, Pichia pastoris The work was performed with the financial support of the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia (Unique Project Identifier RFMEFI60717X0180) using the Multipurpose Scientific Installation of «All-Russian Collection of Industrial Microorganisms» National Bio-Resource Center, NRC «Kurchatov Institute» - GosNIIgenetika.
