Production of recombinant human epidermal growth factor in Pichia pastoris

Abstract: This study was carried out to express human epidermal growth factor (hEGF) in Pichia pastoris GS115. For this aim, the hEGF gene was cloned into the pPIC9K expression vector, and then integrated into P. pastoris by electroporation. ELISA-based assay showed that the amount of hEGF secreted into the medium can be affected by the fermentation conditions especially by culture medium, pH and temperature. The best medium for the optimal hEGF production was BMMY buffered at a pH range of 6.0 and 7.0. The highest amou… Show more

“…Residual glycerol in the cultivation was not depleted completely at the beginning of methanol induction, which repressed the production of human cathepsin S. A high cell density was not always consistent with the production of human cathepsin S, especially in the case of excess residual glycerol in the culture medium at the beginning of the induced phase. This phenomenon was in accordance with what has been reported on human epidermal growth factor production [Eissazadeh et al, 2017]. Before the initiation of methanol induction, glycerol should be depleted from the cultivation to provide a fluent expression of human cathepsin S.…”

“…3) for the production of human cathepsin S, which is similar to what has been reported for laccase production in the P. pastoris host system [Eissazadeh et al, 2017;Hong et al, 2002]. Figure 3 shows that methanol at a higher concentration than 0.5% (v/v) inhibited P. pastoris growth and repressed the expression of human cathepsin S. The toxicity effect of methanol was very evident at 1%, which critically reduced human cathepsin S expression and P. pastoris growth.…”

“…The presence of alternative oxidase (AOX) genes makes this methylotrophic yeast able to convert methanol into formaldehyde and hydrogen peroxide, thus utilizing methanol as energy and carbon source . In many previous studies, the classic AOX1 promoter (P AOX1 ), including P AOX1 ‐derived variants, was mostly used for recombinant protein expression in P. pastoris owing to its strong and tightly regulated features .…”

“…[1][2][3][4][5][6][7] The presence of alternative oxidase (AOX) genes makes this methylotrophic yeast able to convert methanol into formaldehyde and hydrogen peroxide, thus utilizing methanol as energy and carbon source. [8][9][10] In many previous studies, the classic AOX1 promoter (P AOX1 ), including P AOX1 -derived variants, was mostly used for recombinant protein expression in P. pastoris owing to its strong and tightly regulated features. 2,3 From the industrial perspective, however, the main drawbacks of this type of strain are the high amount of heat production and oxygen requirement as well as the presence of methanol as a toxic and flammable substance in the upstream and sometimes downstream stages.…”

“…Recombinant P. pastoris can produce a high level of heterologous proteins in a simple and protein‐free medium, and it also performs post‐translation modification relatively similar to the mammalian cells . The presence of two alcohol oxidase (AOX) genes makes this kind of microorganism able to utilize methanol as carbon and energy source . For recombinant protein expression in P. pastoris , the AOX1 promoter is usually used due to its strong and tightly regulated feature .…”
