Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An object of the present invention it to improve the secretion productivity of a heterologous protein in a methanol-assimilating yeast. The present invention provides a method for producing a heterologous protein, characterized by comprising using a methanol-assimilating yeast with disruption of the VPS gene as a host for secretory production of the heterologous protein.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for producing a heterologous protein, characterized by comprising using methanol-assimilating yeast with simultaneous disruptions of the vacuolar protein sorting (VPS) gene and the vacuolar protease B (PRB1) gene as a host for secretory production of the heterologous protein, wherein the VPS gene is at least one gene selected from the group consisting of VPS8, and VPS15. 2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the meth…
