Molecular characterization of the Hansenula polymorpha FLD1 gene encoding formaldehyde dehydrogenase.
Glutathione-dependent formaldehyde dehydrogenase (FLD) is a key enzyme required forthe catabolism of methanol as a carbon source and certain primary amines, such as methylamine as nitrogen sources in methylotrophic yeasts. Here we describe the molecular characterization of the FLD1 gene from the yeast Hansenula polymorpha. Unlike the recently described Pichia pastoris homologue, the H. polymorp...
متن کاملBioconversion of airborne formaldehyde by immobilized formaldehyde dehydrogenase from the recombinant methylotrophic yeast Hansenula polymorpha
Formaldehyde (FA) is a very toxic pollutant. FA in indoor air has a negative effect on human health and should be removed by ventilation or by conversion to non-toxic products. The formaldehyde dehydrogenase (FdDH), a NADand glutathione-dependent enzyme from recombinant methylotrophic yeast Hansenula polymorpha, was tested for its ability to oxidize airborne FA. A continuous fluidized bed biore...
متن کاملExpression of granulocyte colony stimulating factor (GCSF) in Hansenula polymorpha
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES During past decades Hansenula polymorpha has attracted global attention for the expression of recombinant proteins due to its high growth rate, minimal nutritional porequirements and use of methanol as a low cost inducer. MATERIALS AND METHODS The corresponding nucleotide sequences for the expression of heterologous genes in Hansenula poylmorpha were extracted and as...
متن کاملEngineering and analysis of a Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain that uses formaldehyde as an auxiliary substrate.
We demonstrated that formaldehyde can be efficiently coutilized by an engineered Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain that expresses Hansenula polymorpha genes encoding formaldehyde dehydrogenase (FLD1) and formate dehydrogenase (FMD), in contrast to wild-type strains. Initial chemostat experiments showed that the engineered strain coutilized formaldehyde with glucose, but these mixed-substrate cult...
