Methods for altering a selected chromosomal locus in P. methanolica cells and cells comprising such altered loci are disclosed. A linear DNA construct comprising (i) a segment comprising a portion of the target locus in which at least one nucleotide pair is altered and (ii) a selectable marker that complements adenine auxotrophy is introduced into cells auxotrophic for adenine. The cells are cultured under selective conditions, and cells in which the linear DNA construct has been chromosomally integrated by homologous recombination are identified. The cells are then cultured under conditions whereby cells auxotrophic for adenine can be identified, and a subset of such cells in which the altered locus has been chromosomally integrated are identified.
