Abstract:
:In this study extruded bean was used as a nitrogen source substitute in culture medium formulation. A 3-factor simplex-lattice mixture design was used to establish better growth conditions. Completely substituted medium resulted in 43% of increase in the growth of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Mixtures containing 1% extruded bean and 1% yeast extract, or 1% extruded bean and 1% peptone presented growths of 76-79% higher than the commercial YPD medium for S. cerevisiae. Pichia pastoris (GS115) growth was enhanced by 20% using a completely substituted medium. The protein expression patterns in P. pastoris (GS115) remained unchanged when growth was conducted in a medium containing extruded bean as unique nitrogen source. The total amount of recombinant protein expressed in extruded bean medium was 88.5% higher than in control expression medium. These results evidenced that extruded bean can be successfully used as a substitute of peptone and yeast extract in culture media for S. cerevisiae's and P. pastoris' (GS115) growth.
