Project description:The important industrial protein production host Komagataella phaffii (syn Pichia pastoris) is classified as a non-conventional yeast. But what exactly makes K. phaffii non-conventional? In this review, we set out to address the main differences to the 'conventional' yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, but also pinpoint differences to other non-conventional yeasts used in biotechnology. Apart from its methylotrophic lifestyle, K. phaffii is a Crabtree-negative yeast species. But even within the methylotrophs, K. phaffii possesses distinct regulatory features such as glycerol-repression of the methanol-utilization pathway or the lack of nitrate assimilation. Rewiring of the transcriptional networks regulating carbon (and nitrogen) source utilization clearly contributes to our understanding of genetic events occurring during evolution of yeast species. The mechanisms of mating-type switching and the triggers of morphogenic phenotypes represent further examples for how K. phaffii is distinguished from the model yeast S. cerevisiae. With respect to heterologous protein production, K. phaffii features high secretory capacity but secretes only low amounts of endogenous proteins. Different to S. cerevisiae, the Golgi apparatus of K. phaffii is stacked like in mammals. While it is tempting to speculate that Golgi architecture is correlated to the high secretion levels or the different N-glycan structures observed in K. phaffii, there is recent evidence against this. We conclude that K. phaffii is a yeast with unique features that has a lot of potential to explore both fundamental research questions and industrial applications.

Project description:The Crabtree phenotype defines whether a yeast can perform simultaneous respiration and fermentation under aerobic conditions at high growth rates, a phenomenon that resembles the Warburg effect in cancer cells. Whole genome duplication, global promoter rewiring and loss of respiratory complex I are the main molecular events that contributed to the evolution of Crabtree effect. Here we show that overexpression of a single Gal4-like transcription factor is sufficient to convert Crabtree-negative Komagataella phaffii (Pichia pastoris) into a Crabtree positive yeast. We report the transcriptome profile (RNASeq) of the Δgal4-like and Gal4-like overexpression K. phaffii strains. Upregulation of the glycolytic genes and a significant increase in glucose uptake rate due to the overexpression of the Gal4-like transcription factor caused an overflow metabolism, triggering both short-term and long-term Crabtree phenotypes. This indicates that a single mutation leading to overexpression of one gene may have been sufficient as a first molecular event towards respiro-fermentative metabolism in the course of yeast evolution.

Project description:Adaptation to alkalinization of the medium in fungi involves an extensive remodeling of gene expression. Komagataella phaffii is an ascomycetous yeast that has become an organism widely used for heterologous protein expression. We explore here the transcriptional impact of moderate alkalinization in this yeast. In spite of a minor effect on growth, shifting the cultures from pH 5.5 to 8.0 or 8.2 provokes significant changes in the mRNA levels of over 700 genes. Functional categories such as arginine and methionine biosynthesis, non-reductive iron uptake and phosphate metabolism are enriched in induced genes, whereas many genes encoding iron-sulfur proteins or members of the respirasome were repressed. We also show that alkalinization is accompanied by oxidative stress and we propose this circumstance as a common trigger of a subset of the observed changes. PHO89, encoding a Na+/Pi cotransporter, appears among the most potently induced genes by high pH. We demonstrate that this response is mainly based on two calcineurin-dependent response elements located in its promoter, thus indicating that alkalinization triggers a calcium-mediated signal in K. phaffii. Further characterization of alkaline pH responsive promoters may lead to developing novel pH-controlled systems for heterologous protein expression in this fungus.

Project description:Non-conventional methylotrophic yeast Komagataella phaffii is an important production host in biotechnology and an emerging model organism. In this work, we studied K. phaffii response to nitrogen starvation during cultivation in media with methanol as the sole carbon source. The results were compared with well-established model yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Some of the observed effects of nitrogen starvation in K. phaffii were similar to those in S. cerevisiae, despite this yeast does not have metabolic pathway for methanol utilization. The effects include activation of autophagy, transport and catabolism of nitrogen-containing compounds, interconversions of amino acids, and biosynthesis of fatty acids. K. phaffii cells also demonstrated specific response to nitrogen starvation including suppression of genes involved in methanol metabolism and other peroxisomal processes and activation of purine catabolism genes.
