The pPICZαA vectors are 3.6 kb plasmids designed for the expression and secretion of recombinant proteins in *Pichia pastoris* yeast. These recombinant proteins are expressed as N-terminal fusions with the coding sequence of the α-factor secretion signal derived from *Saccharomyces cerevisiae*. The vectors facilitate high-level gene expression induced by methanol in *Pichia pastoris* and can be utilized with any strain of this yeast. We inserted the HSP70 coding gene into this plasmid for fusion expression with GFP.

Usage and Biology

The pPICZαA vectors are 3.6 kb plasmids designed for the expression and secretion of recombinant proteins in *Pichia pastoris* yeast. These recombinant proteins are expressed as N-terminal fusions with the coding sequence of the α-factor secretion signal derived from *Saccharomyces cerevisiae*.

We inserted the HSP70 coding gene into this plasmid for fusion expression with GFP.
