Markedly increased ReGal2 production in the optimized P. pastoris expression system with enhanced AOX1 promoter activity. a Schematic illustration of the relevant cis-elements within the native AOX1 promoter and the engineered MBS-AOX1 promoter. b Evaluation of the AOX1 promoter activity in the conventional or engineered P. pastoris expression system by determining the fluorescence intensity from the EGFP reporter protein. c Schematic illustration of the construction of the optimum engineered P. pastoris expression system that contains both MBS-AOX1 promoter and overexpressed Mxr1. d Extracellular pNPGal hydrolytic activity of the culture supernatant from the conventional and the engineered P. pastoris cells expressing ReGal2, respectively. e SDS-PAGE analysis of the 120 h-culture supernatant of the conventional (lane 1) and the engineered P. pastoris cells (lane 2) expressing ReGal2, respectively. Samples was pretreated with SDS, β-mercaptoethanol and 5-min boiling according to standard protocols before being loaded for SDS-PAGE analysis
