Research Abstract |
To identify the genes affecting heterologous gene expression in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, heterozygous knockout strains of essential genes were used. As a result, 7 mutants that enhance expression of a secretory luciferase were identified. On the other hand none of knockout strain showed significantly lower expression except for weak-growth mutants. Six genes among the knockout strains were involved in RNA metabolism.
