An automated workflow for enhancing microbial bioprocess optimization on a novel microbioreactor platform.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris is a common host for the production of recombinant proteins. However, hypermannosylation hinders the use of recombinant proteins from yeast in most biopharmaceutical applications. Glyco-engineered yeast strains produce more homogeneously glycosylated proteins, but can...
