Abstract excerpt
A Hansenula polymorpha mutant with enhanced ability to secrete a heterologous protein has been isolated. The mutation defines a gene, designated OPU24, which encodes a protein highly homologous to GDP-mannose pyrophosphorylase Psa1p/Srb1p/Vig9p of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and CaSrb1p of Candida albicans. The opu24 mutant manifests phenotypes similar to those of S. cerevisiae mutants depleted for GDP-mannose, such...
