A Hansenula polymorpha mutant with enhanced ability to secrete a heterologous protein has been isolated. The mutation defines a gene, designated OPU24 , which encodes a protein highly homologous to GDP‐mannose pyrophosphorylase Psa1p/Srb1p/Vig9p of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and CaSrb1p of Candida albicans . The opu24 mutant manifests phenotypes similar to those of S. cerevisiae mutants depleted for GDP‐mannose, such as cell wall fragility and defects in N ‐ and O ‐glycosylation of secreted proteins. The influence of the opu24 mutation on endoplasmic reticulum‐associated protein degradation is discussed. The GenBank Accession No. for the OPU24 sequence is AF234177.
