The cDNAs encoding soluble forms of human beta-1, 4-galactosyltransferase I (EC 2.4.1.22), alpha-2,6-sialyltransferase (EC 2.4.99.1), and alpha-1,3-fucosyltransferase VI (EC 2.4.1.65), respectively, have been expressed in the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris. The vector pPIC9 was used, which contains the N-terminal signal sequence of Saccharomyces cerevisiae alpha-factor to allow entry into the secretory pathway. The recombinant enzymes had similar kinetic properties as their native counterparts. Their identity was confirmed by Western blotting. Recombinant enzymes may be used for in vitro synthesis of oligosaccharides.
