Thermostable enzymes are needed in industry because of their stability in harsh industrial processes. As such there is a constant need for new inexpensive thermostable enzymes. Yeast is considered as a good host for large scale protein expression. A thermophilic Bacillus stearothermophilus F1 was found to produce an thermostable serine protease. Gene encoding pro-mature thermostable W200R protease was cloned into Pichia pastoris expression vector and placed under the control of the methanol inducible alcohol oxidase (AOX) promoter. The recombinant pPICZαB/W200R protease gene was transformed into E. coli for plasmid replication before subsequent transformation into P.pastoris strain X-33, GS115 and SMD1168.This expression system efficiently secreted W200R protease into the culture medium driven by Saccharomyces cerevisiae α-factor signal sequence.
