ABSTRACT:
Methods for preparing Pichia methanolica cells containing foreign DNA constructs and methods for producing foreign polypeptides in Pichia methanolica cells are disclosed. The cells are transformed with a DNA construct comprising a first DNA segment comprising a transcription promoter of a methanol-inducible P. methanolica gene, a second DNA segment encoding a higher eukaryotic polypeptide, a third DNA segment comprising a P. methanolica gene transcription terminator, and a selectable marker. For production of foreign polypeptides, the cells are cultured under conditions in which the second DNA segment is expressed, and the polypeptide encoded by the second DNA segment is recovered.
