WHY YEAST?
Producing functional proteins often requires a eukaryotic expression system.
Advantages of Yeast Expression Systems
- Proper protein folding
- Post-translational modifications
- Easily scalable production
- High expression yield
- Cost-effective system
Why Saccharomyces cerevisiae?
Well-characterized organism
Decades of genomic and proteomic data enable reliable engineering and reproducibility.
Easy genetic manipulation
Efficient transformation, homologous recombination, and episomal plasmid systems.
Industrial scalability
Proven track record in large-scale fermentation and bioproduction.
