β¦ Synopsis
Extracellular lipase production and lipA expression were studied in A.calcoace~cus strains in relation to the nitrogen sources. Addition of casamino-acids or tryptone improved 2-3 times lipase yield as compared to ammonium, yeast extract or proteosepeptone. Further increase in lipase yield and enzyme stability were achieved when ammonium was also added. Differences in yields were not related to lipA transcription. Proteolytic activity was detected in culture broths simultaneous with lipase degradation. Post-transcriptional processes including enzyme protection, inactivation and secretion must be considered as important factors affecting lipase production.

## Abstract **BACKGROUND:** __Yarrowia lipolytica__ lipase LIP2 (YlLIP2) is an important industrial enzyme that has many potential applications. Although it has been successfully expressed in __Pichia pastoris__ under the control of the __AOX1__ promoter (__pAOX1__), there have been many efforts to
The yeast Pichia pastoris has been previously used for extracellular expression of a Rhizopus oryzae lipase (Rol). However, limitations in Rol folding and secretion through the cell wall became apparent when producing it in fed-batch cultivations. In this study, we have investigated the effect of co
