Zusammenfassung:A continuous fermentation process has been developed in Pichia pastoris (P. pastoris) in order to produce large quantities of recombinant human proteins. High expression levels have been demonstrated in continuous production of the enzyme by P. pastoris with a constitutive promoter in a 1.5-liter working volume fermenter using either glucose or glycerol as the carbon source. The fermentation could be extended for long periods of time with a excellent steady-state protein concentration and cell densities achieved. No proteolytic degradation of the enzyme was seen in the continuous fermentation mode.
