Human serum albumin (HSA), sourced from human serum, has been an important therapeutic protein for several decades. Pichia pastoris is strongly considered as an expression platform, but proteolytic degradation of recombinant HSA in the culture filtrate remains a major bottleneck for use of this system. In this study, we have reported the development of a medium that minimized proteolytic degradation across different copy number constructs. A synthetic codon-optimized copy of HSA was cloned downstream of α-factor secretory signal sequence and expressed in P. pastoris under the control of Alcohol oxidase 1 promoter. A two-copy expression cassette was also prepared. Culture conditions and medium components were identified and optimized using statistical tools to develop a medium that supported stable production of HSA. Comparative analysis of transcriptome data obtained by cultivation on optimized and unoptimized medium indicated upregulation of genes involved in methanol metabolism, alternate nitrogen assimilation, and DNA transcription, whereas enzymes of translation and secretion were downregulated. Several new genes were identified that could serve as possible targets for strain engineering of this yeast.
