Abstract: The expression of recombinant glucose oxidase(GOD)in Pichia pastoris was enhanced by the sole expression of protein chaperones protein disulfide isomerase(PDI)as well as the co-expression of endoplasmic reticulum oxidoreductase 1(Ero1)and PDI. The pPICZ/PDI and pPICZ/PDI -Ero1expression plasmids were linearized and integrated into the genome of P. pastoris X33/pMD-GOD by electroporation. The positive transformants were screened with double-resistance plate of 250 μg/mL G418 and 50 μg/mL Zeocin. The positive transformants were fermented in tube and 10 L fermenter for analyzing the effects of co-expressing PDI and Ero1-PDI on the expression of GOD. The results revealed that co-expression of PDI and Ero1-PDI increased GOD activity by 29.7% and 100% and their activity reached 476 U/m L and 736 U/m L respectively in 10 L fermenter at 30℃,compared with the control type of original strain. Conclusively,the integration of chaperone PDI and Ero1 enhanced the correct folding of GOD and significantly increased the expression of GOD.

Key words: glucose oxidase, chaperone, protein expression, Pichia pastoris
