ABSTRACT:
A transformation system is provided for C. tropicalis, comprising constructs and microorganisms, as well as methods for preparing constructs and microorganisms, and transforming microorganisms. Particularly, a yeast transformation system comprising auxotrophic hosts which are auxotrophic in either an amino acid, purine or pyrimidine pathways and employ DNA constructs comprising genes encoding biosynthetic enzymes which functionally complement the auxotrophies to prototrophies.
