Enhanced reactivity of Rhizopus oryzae lipase displayed on yeast cell surfaces in organic solvents: Potential as a whole-cell biocatalyst in organic solvents
Article Abstract:
Applications of genetically immobilized Rhizopus oryzae lipase displayed on the cell surface of Saccharomyces cerevisiae in organic solvents and measured the catalytic activity of the displayed enzyme as a fusion protein with alpha-agglutinin is evaluated. The results show that the yeast cells displaying the lipase can be used in organic solvents and the lipase activity may be increased by a combination of protein engineering and display techniques.

In vivo synthesis of mammalian-like, hybrid-type N-glycans in pichia pastoris
Article Abstract:
An engineering of the P. pastoris N-glycosylation pathway to produce nonhyperglycosylated hybrid glycans are described. This is done by inactivation of OCH1 and over expression of an alpha-1,2-mannosidase retained in the endoplasmic reticulum and N-acetyglucosaminyltransferase I and beta-1,4-hybrid-type N-linked oligosaccharide structure on its glycoproteins.
