Abstract

has been studied in fed-batch bioprocesses witha manual (off-line) methanol concentration control [4].These studies demonstrated that variations of the residualmethanol concentration influence drastically in the spe-cific consumption and production rates. To avoid thisproblem a predictive control algorithm coupled with a PIfeedback controller has been satisfactorily implemented[5].This set-up has allowed for further analysis of several keyparameters influencing heterologous protein productionin

Highlights

  • An important number of heterologous proteins have been produced in the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris using the methanol-inducible alcohol oxidase promoter [1]

  • When the methanol set point was set at 0.5 g· L-1, the qp reached a maximum of 340 UA· gX-1· h-1 at the beginning of the induction phase, followed by a sharp decrease to almost zero values after 20 h of induction

  • Microbial Cell Factories 2006, 5(Suppl 1):S13 batch cultivation carried out at a set point of 1 g· L-1, the lipolytic activity values remained very low during a considerable period (20 h of induction phase); after this lag phase, a maximum qp value of 440 UA· gX-1· h-1 is reached after 40 h of induction phase, which was followed by an exponential decrease to values below 100 UA· gX1· h-1 after 75 h of fed-batch phase
