In our previous study, the α-amylase from Rhizopus oryzae (RoAmy) was expressed in Escherichia coli and Saccharomyces cerevisiae but the obtained recombinant RoAmy (rRoAmy) yields were too low. The aim of the present research was to obtain high-level expressions of RoAmy in the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris. To this end, we constructed P. pastoris strains with the capability to express recombinant α-amylase under the control of constitutive glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAP) and methanol-inducible alcohol oxidase 1 promoters. The levels of inducibly expressed rRoAmy were higher than those of constitutively expressed. The maximal inducible rRoAmy expression levels for the Mut+ strains (41.1 mg/l) were approximately eight times higher than those for the Muts strains and 24 times higher than those expressed under the control of the GAP promoter. For both inducible and constitutive expressions, the S. cerevisiae α-prepro sequence and the native signal sequence of RoAmy were used separately to direct the secretion of rRoAmy into the culture medium of P. pastoris. Low levels of intracellular amylase activities that had been detected after shake-flask fermentation indicated that both signal sequences could effectively direct the secretion of rRoAmy under all studied conditions. In addition, the secretion levels of rRoAmy directed with its own signal peptide were 7–10% higher than those directed by the α-prepro sequence.
