objectives: in present research we evaluate the expression of this critical enzyme in a eukaryotic system for future use in cheese industry. materials and methods: we have cloned bovine prochymosin gene in methylotrophic yeast, p. pastoris, using ppic9k as an expression vector. the recombinant plasmid was transformed into the host by electroporation, and it was expressed in optimum con­ditions...

Prochymosin (PC) sequence was cloned in Bacillus subtilis using two kinds of plasmid constructions. In plasmid pSM316 the cDNA was inserted to obtain the intracellular expression of the enzyme. The enzyme turned out to be expressed in an insoluble form which could be converted to native enzyme under proper denaturing and refolding conditions. The levels of intracellular expression of PC were fu...
