Microbial cellulose utilization: fundamentals and biotechnology.

TL;DR: A concluding discussion identifies unresolved issues pertaining to microbial cellulose utilization, suggests approaches by which such issues might be resolved, and contrasts a microbially oriented cellulose hydrolysis paradigm to the more conventional enzymatically oriented paradigm in both fundamental and applied contexts.
Journal ArticleDOI

Heterologous protein expression in the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris

TL;DR: This paper reviews the P. pastoris expression system: how it was developed, how it works, and what proteins have been produced and describes new promoters and auxotrophic marker/host strain combinations which extend the usefulness of the system.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recent advances in the expression of foreign genes in Pichia pastoris

TL;DR: The Pichia pastoris heterologous gene expression system has been utilized to produce attractive levels of a variety of intracellular and extracellular proteins of interest and improvements in understanding and application have improved its utility even further.
Journal ArticleDOI

Glucose oxidase--an overview.

TL;DR: Various purification techniques for higher recovery of glucose oxidase are described here, and issues of enzyme kinetics, stability studies and characterization are addressed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recombinant protein expression in Pichia pastoris.

TL;DR: Major advances in the development of new strains and vectors, improved techniques, and the commercial availability of these tools coupled with a better understanding of the biology of Pichia species have led to this microbe’s value and power in commercial and research labs alike.

Transformation of intact yeast cells treated with alkali cations.

TL;DR: The transformation efficiency with Cs+ or Li+ was comparable with that of conventional protoplast methods for a plasmid containing ars1, although not for plasmids containing a 2 microns origin replication.
Journal ArticleDOI

Assembly of asparagine-linked oligosaccharides.

TL;DR: The structure of ASPARAGINE-LINKed OLIGOSACCI-IARIDES and transfer-Oligosaccharide Structural Requirements, and Sequence of Processing and Specificity of Processing Enzymes are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Protein folding in the cell.

TL;DR: Folding and assembly of polypeptides in vivo involves other proteins, many of which belong to families that have been highly conserved during evolution.
Journal ArticleDOI

A conserved AU sequence from the 3′ untranslated region of GM-CSF mRNA mediates selective mRNA degradation

TL;DR: It is proposed that the AU sequences are the recognition signal for an mRNA processing pathway which specifically degrades the mRNAs for certain lymphokines, cytokines, and proto-oncogenes.
Journal ArticleDOI

The scanning model for translation: an update.

TL;DR: The small (40S) subunit of eukaryotic ribosomes is believed to bind initially at the capped 5'-end of messenger RNA and then migrate, stopping at the first AUG codon in a favorable context for initiating translation.
