Abstract
Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are laboratory-based engineered protein molecules with a monovalent affinity or multivalent avidity towards a specific target or antigen, which can mimic natural antibodies that are produced in the human immune systems to fight against detrimental pathogens. The recombinant mAb is one of the most effective classes of biopharmaceuticals produced in vitro by cloning and expressing synthetic antibody genes in a suitable host. Yeast is one of the potential hosts among others for the successful production of recombinant mAbs. However, there are very few yeast-derived mAbs that got the approval of the regulatory agencies for direct use for treatment purposes. Certain challenges encountered by yeasts for recombinant antibody productions need to be overcome and a few considerations related to antibody structure, host engineering, and culturing strategies should be followed for the improved production of mAbs in yeasts. In this review, the drawbacks related to the metabolic burden of the host, culturing conditions including induction mechanism and secretion efficiency, solubility and stability, downstream processing, and the pharmacokinetic behavior of the antibody are discussed, which will help in developing the yeast hosts for the efficient production of recombinant mAbs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Human lysozyme (hLYZ), an emerging antibacterial agent, has extensive application in the food and pharmaceutical industries. However, the source of hLYZ is particularly limited. RESULTS To achieve highly efficient expression and secretion of hLYZ in Pichia pastoris, multiple strategies including G418 sulfate screening, signal sequence optimization, vacuolar sorting receptor VPS10 disruption, and chaperones/transcription factors co-expression were applied. The maximal enzyme activity of extracellular hLYZ in a shaking flask was 81,600 ± 5230 U mL-1 , which was about five times of original strain. To further reduce the cost, the optimal medium RDMY was developed and the highest hLYZ activity reached 352,000 ± 16,696.5 U mL-1 in a 5 L fermenter. CONCLUSION This research provides a very useful and cost-effective approach for the hLYZ production in P. pastoris and can also be applied to the production of other recombinant proteins.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ablynx NV, a subsidiary of Sanofi, has a long-standing focus on the development of Nanobody® molecules as biopharmaceuticals (Nanobody® is a registered trademark of Ablynx NV). Nanobody molecules are single variable domains, and they have been met with great success part due to their favorable expression properties in several microbial systems. Nevertheless, the search for the host of the future is an ongoing and challenging process. Komagataella phaffi (Pichia pastoris) is one of the most suitable organisms to produce Nanobody molecules. In addition, genetic engineering of Pichia is easy and an effective approach to improve titers. RESULTS Here we report that P. pastoris engineered to co-express genes encoding four auxiliary proteins (HAC1, KAR2, PDI and RPP0), leads to a marked improvement in the expression of Nanobody molecules using the AOX1 methanol induction system. Titer improvement is mainly attributed to HAC1, and its beneficial effect was also observed in a methanol-free expression system. CONCLUSION Our findings are based on over a thousand fed-batch fermentations and offer a valuable guide to produce Nanobody molecules in P. pastoris. The presented differences in expressability between types of Nanobody molecules will be helpful for researchers to select both the type of Nanobody molecule and Pichia strain and may stimulate further the development of a more ecological methanol-free expression platform.

Abstract
Azurin, which is a bacterial secondary metabolite has been attracted as a potential anticancer agent in recent years because induced death of cancer cells and inhibited their growth. In this study, the production of azurin under the control of the alcohol oxidase promoter which is frequently used in the Pichia pastoris expression system was performed. The azurin gene amplified from Pseudomonas aeruginosa genomic DNA and inserted into the pPICZαA was cloned in Escherichia coli cells. Then, a linearized recombinant vector was transferred to the P. pastoris X-33 cells. Antibiotic resistance test and colony PCR were performed for the selection of multicopy transformants. Protein expression capacities of selected transformants were compared at the end of 48 h incubation. Both extracellular and intracellular protein expressions were observed in all of them by Western blot analysis. The relative expression levels of both intracellular and extracellular protein that belongs to the first clone were higher than the others. On the other hand, it was seen that the 4th clone had the highest protein secretion ability. The molecular mass of the extracellular azurin protein which is produced by recombinant clones was found to be about 20 kDa. This is the first report on azurin expression in P. pastoris.

Abstract
Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is nonmelanoma skin cancer, which is very common in patients having T-cell immunosuppressant drugs. Anticancerous agents such as cytokines showed effective response on SCC. Human interferon-gamma (hIFN-γ), a type II cytokines, are having potent antiproliferative and immunomodulatory effects. In the current study, the fed-batch cultivation of recombinant Pichia pastoris was carried out, and its effect on cell biomass production, recombinant human interferon-gamma (rhIFN-γ) production, and the overflow metabolites was estimated. P. pastoris GS115 strain coexpressed with 6-phosphogluconolactonase (SOL3) and ribulose-phosphate 3-epimerase (RPE1) gene (GS115/rhIFN-γ/SR) resulted in 60 mg L-1 of rhIFN-γ production, which was twofold higher as compared with the production from GS115/rhIFN-γ strain. The antiproliferative potential of rhIFN-γ was examined on the human squamous carcinoma (A431) cell lines. Cells treated with 80 ng mL-1 of rhIFN-γ exhibited 50% growth inhibition by enhancing the production of intracellular reactive oxygen species levels and disrupting membrane integrity. Our findings highlight a state of art process development strategy for the high-level production of rhIFN-γ and its potential application as a therapeutic drug in SCC therapy.

Abstract
In the current work, the attempt was made to apply best-fitted artificial neural network (ANN) architecture and the respective training process for predicting final titer of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), produced intracellularly by recombinant Pichia pastoris Mut+ in the commercial scale. For this purpose, in large-scale fed-batch fermentation, using methanol for HBsAg induction and cell growth, three parameters of average specific growth rate, biomass yield, and dry biomass concentration-in the definite integral form with respect to fermentation time-were selected as input vectors; the final concentration of HBsAg was selected for the ANN output. Used dataset consists of 38 runs from previous batches; feed-forward ANN 3:5:1 with training algorithm of backpropagation based on a Bayesian regularization was trained and tested with a high degree of accuracy. Implementing the verified ANN for predicting the HBsAg titer of the five new fermentation runs, excluded from the dataset, in the full-scale production, the coefficient of regression and root-mean-square error were found to be 0.969299 and 2.716774, respectively. These results suggest that this verified soft sensor could be an excellent alternative for the current relatively expensive and time-intensive analytical techniques such as enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in the biopharmaceutical industry.

Abstract
Hydrophobins are small highly surface-active fungal proteins with potential as biosurfactants in a wide array of applications. However, practical implementation of hydrophobins at large scale has been hindered by low recombinant yields. In this study, the effects of increasing hydrophobin gene copy number and overexpressing endoplasmic reticulum resident chaperone proteins Kar2p, Pdi1p, and Ero1p were explored as a means to enhance recombinant yields of the class II hydrophobin HFBI in the eukaryotic expression host Pichia pastoris. One-, 2-, and 3-copy-HFBI strains were attained using an in vitro multimer ligation approach, with strains displaying copy number stability following subsequent transformations as measured by quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Increasing HFBI copy number alone had no effect on increasing HFBI secretion, but increasing copy number in concert with chaperone overexpression synergistically increased HFBI secretion. Overexpression of PDI1 or ERO1 caused insignificant changes in HFBI secretion in 1- and 2-copy strains, but a statistically significant HFBI secretion increase in 3-copy strain. KAR2 overexpression consistently resulted in enhanced HFBI secretion in all copy number strains, with 3-copy-HFBI secreting 22±1.6 fold more than the 1-copy-HFBI/no chaperone strain. The highest increase was seen in 3-copy-HFBI/Ero1p overexpressing strain with 30±4.0 fold increase in HFBI secretion over 1-copy-HFBI/no chaperone strain. This corresponded to an expression level of approximately 330 mg/L HFBI in the 5 ml small-scale format used in this study.

Abstract
Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch is threatened by over-development and consumption, and therefore, in urgent need of protection. Elicitation is considered to be an effective strategy to enhance the secondary metabolites in plant cell and organ cultures. Secondary metabolite, signal molecules, and gene expression in adventitious roots were studied by HPLC-ESI-MSn , commercially available kits and qRT-PCR method, respectively. In the present study, with the addition of linolenic acid, linoleic acid, and Pichia pastoris, the highest concentration of metabolites was achieved by P. pastoris treatment. The contents of total flavonoids (7.16 mg/g) and polysaccharide (149.76 mg/g) peaked at 100 mg/L of P. pastoris, which increased by 3.09-fold and 3.28-fold compared with the control, respectively. However, the highest concentration of glycyrrhizic acid (0.62 mg/g) and glycyrrhetinic acid (0.29 mg/g) were obtained in 200 mg/L of P. pastoris and which were 3.89-fold and 2.42-fold more than the control group, respectively. ESI-MSn analysis indicated that licoricesaponine B2, licoricesapoine G2, licoricesaponine J2, ononin, uralenin, gancaonin C were only identified in the P. pastoris treatment group. Furthermore, P. pastoris also enhanced accumulation of salicylic acid, jasmonic acid, nitric oxide and activities of antioxidant enzymes involved in the plant defense response. In addition, the transcriptional activity of genes involved in glycyrrhizic acid biosynthesis was significantly increased under the treatment of P. pastoris. The results provided a scientific evidence for the further exploitation of G. uralensis adventitious roots and clinical medication. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: This study provided an effective strategy to enhance metabolites by Pichia pastoris treatment in adventitious roots of G. uralensis. The data provide a scientific evidence for the further exploitation of G. uralensis adventitious roots and clinical medication.

Abstract
Artificial neural networking (ANN) seems to be a promising soft sensor for implementing current approaches of quality by design (QbD) and process analytical technologies (PAT) in the biopharmaceutical industry. In this study, we aimed to implement best-fitted ANN architecture for online prediction of the biomass amount of recombinant Pichia pastoris (P. pastoris) - expressing intracellular hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) - during the fed-batch fermentation process using methanol as a sole carbon source. For this purpose, at the induction phase of methanol fed-batch fermentation, carbon evolution rate (CER), dissolved oxygen (DO), and methanol feed rate were selected as input vectors and total wet cell weight (WCW) was considered as output vector for the ANN. The obtained results indicated that after training recurrent ANN with data sets of four fed-batch runs, this toolbox could predict the WCW of the next fed-batch fermentation process at each specified time point with high accuracy. The R-squared and root-mean-square error between actual and predicted values were found to be 0.9985 and 13.73, respectively. This verified toolbox could have major importance in the biopharmaceutical industry since recombinant P. pastoris is widely used for the large-scale production of HBsAg.

Abstract
PinX1 encoded by a remarkable tumor suppressor gene and located in human chromosome 8p23 is known as telomerase inhibitor. In recent years, this protein has been of interest as clinically tumor suppressor. Pichia pastoris expression system is preferred to produce heterologous proteins and is suitable for industrial and research purposes. In the present study, human PinX1 gene (hPinX1) was cloned in E. coli One Shot TOP10 cells and overexpressed in P. pastoris strain X-33 intracellularly, using a strong AOX (alcohol oxidase) promoter. The recombinant cells were grown in shaking flask. Induction time, methanol concentration and initial pH were optimized for obtaining high levels of hPinX1 protein production. Recombinant protein production was confirmed by Western blot analysis and the relative expression levels of rhPinX1 were quantified. According to Western blot analysis, molecular mass of produced hPinX1 was determined as 47.5 kDa. At the end of optimization studies, the best fermentation conditions were determined as induction time 48 h, methanol concentration 3% and initial culture pH 5.0. This process would be an applicable way for obtaining recombinant hPinX1 using P. pastoris expression system. This is the first report on recombinant production of hPinX1 in P. pastoris.
