PICHIA PASTORIS LOCI ENCODING ENZYMES IN THE ADENINE BIOSYNTHETIC PATHWAY

摘要

Disclosed are the ADE3, ADE4, ADE5, 7, ADE6, ADE8, ADE12, and ADE13 genes encoding various enzymes in the adenine biosynthesis pathway of Pichia pastoris. The loci in the Pichia pastoris genome encoding these enzymes are useful sites for stable integration of heterologous nucleic acid molecules into the Pichia pastoris genome. The genes or gene fragments encoding the particular enzymes, which may be used as selection markers for constructing recombinant Pichia pastoris.
