Cumulative improvements of thermostability and pH-activity profile of Aspergillus niger PhyA phytase by site-directed mutagenesis.

abstract：:Yeast are important production platforms for the generation of recombinant proteins. Nonetheless, their use has been restricted in the production of therapeutic proteins due to differences in their glycosylation profile with that of higher eukaryotes. The yeast strain Pichia pastoris is an industrially important organ...
