Abstract excerpt
Grape-derived proteins can form haze in wine. Some cell-wall glycoproteins of Saccharomyces cerevisiae are capable of reducing protein haze formation. The basis of their haze protective activity is not yet understood. One of the S. cerevisiae cell-wall proteins, Hpf2, was produced in Pichia pastoris . An altered glycan structure in the P. pastoris -produced protein was associated with decreased solubility in...
