  • Title: Yeast systems biotechnology for the production of heterologous proteins.
    Author: Graf A, Dragosits M, Gasser B, Mattanovich D.
    Journal: FEMS Yeast Res; 2009 May; 9(3):335-48. PubMed ID: 19341379.
    Abstract:
    Systems biotechnology has been established as a highly potent tool for bioprocess development in recent years. The applicability to complex metabolic processes such as protein synthesis and secretion, however, is still in its infancy. While yeasts are frequently applied for heterologous protein production, more progress in this field has been achieved for bacterial and mammalian cell culture systems than for yeasts. A critical comparison between different protein production systems, as provided in this review, can aid in assessing the potentials and pitfalls of applying systems biotechnology concepts to heterologous protein producing yeasts. Apart from modelling, the methodological basis of systems biology strongly relies on postgenomic methods. However, this methodology is rapidly moving so that more global data with much higher sensitivity will be achieved in near future. The development of next generation sequencing technology enables an unexpected revival of genomic approaches, providing new potential for evolutionary engineering and inverse metabolic engineering.
