Pichia Strains

Wild Type

Standard Pichia pastoris strain for protein expression. His4 auxotroph with fast methanol utilization.

Advantages: Fast methanol utilization, high expression levels, well-characterized

Methanol Utilization Slow

Methanol utilization slow strain for controlled induction kinetics.

Advantages: Slower, more controlled methanol induction, reduced heat generation during fermentation

Protease Deficient

Protease-deficient strain for sensitive protein production.

Advantages: Reduced protein degradation, ideal for protease-sensitive targets

Glycosylation Modified

Glycoengineered strain producing human-like mannose-5 glycans.

Advantages: Human-compatible glycosylation pattern, reduced immunogenicity
