Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to a method for obtaining 1-kestose on an industrial scale, using a recombinant fructosyltransferase (FTF) isolated from Festuca arundinacea, constitutively expressed in a non saccharolytic yeast host. According to the invention, the recombinant FTF of the sucrose:sucrose 1-fructosyltransferase (1-SSTrec) type is produced in a constitutive and stable manner and in high yields, both in the supernatant and in the cell sediment of the culture of a strain of Pichia pastoris. The invention also relates to a method for obtaining 1-SST on an industrial scale. The resulting recombinant enzyme is used for the mass enzymatic production of fructooligosaccharides (FOS), specifically 1-kestose, from sucrose. The method of the invention allows FOS conversion percentages greater than 55%, with 1-kestose being represented in more than 90%. La presente invención se refiere a un método de obtención de 1-kestosa a escala industrial que se caracteriza porque la conversión de la sacarosa en 1-kestosa en un biorreactor se realiza mediante el empleo de una sacarosa 1-fructosiltransferasa (1-SST) recombinante, de Festuca arundinacea, expresada constitutivamente en una levadura hospedera no sacarolítica y donde la concentración inicial de sacarosa en el biorreactor es superior a 400 g/L.
