Production of recombinant human serum albumin (rHSA) controlled by the constitutive promoter phosphoglycerate kinase was studied in Kluyveromyces lactis . It was governed by both cell concentration and glycolytic flow. The triggering of the fermentation metabolism by unfavourable culture conditions (pH, pO 2 , D ) caused a decrease in the synthesis of the heterologous protein. The highest productivity (75 mg 1 −1 per h) and rHSA concentration (62 mg 1 −1 ) were obtained in chemostat culture with a dilution rate of 0·12 h −1 and with 38 g 1 −1 dry weight.
