ABSTRACT:
A method of enhancing heterologous protein secretion in a yeast cell is disclosed. In one embodiment, the method comprising the steps of engineering a yeast cell to overexpress at last one gene selected from the group consisting of CCW12, CWP2, SED1, RPP0, ERO1 and their homologs, supplying the yeast cell with a nucleic acid encoding a heterologous protein and obtaining increased expression of the heterologous protein, wherein the expression is increased relative to the protein expression in a yeast cell that does not overexpress a gene selected from the group consisting of CCW12, CWP2, SED1, RPP0, ERO1 and their homologs.
