## Abstract Tyrosinase (EC 1.14.18.1) catalyzes the oxidation of L‐3,4‐dihydroxyphenylalanine (L‐DOPA) to 2,3,5,6‐tetrahydro‐5,6‐dioxo‐1H‐indole‐2‐carboxylate (dopachrome), according to the classical Michaelis‐Menten kinetic mechanism. The enzyme is strongly but slowly inhibited by α‐amino‐β‐[__N__
The methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris, which proved successful in producing many heterologous proteins, was used to express an insulin precursor. A transformant with a high copy number of the gene integrated into the chromosome was obtained by the dot-blotting method. In high-density fermentation
