Abstract
The present invention provides a modified eukaryotic cell wherein the modified eukaryotic cell is not able to provide an SSN6-like protein that exerts its wildtype function and/or wildtype activity, the amount of SSN6-like protein being present in the modified eukaryotic cell differs from the amount of SSN6-like protein being present in its wildtype form, and/or essentially no SSN6-like protein is present in the modified cell. Additionally, the present invention provides a polynucleotide sequence comprising a modified ssn6-like gene, and a vector comprising said polynucleoptide. Additionally provided is an expression vector comprising a promoter that is repressed in the presence of SSN6-like protein, and a host cell comprising said vectors. The present invention further refers to a method for determining the purity of a composition by using the modified eukaryotic cell, to a method of expressing gene(s) of interest, and eukaryotic cells comprising modified ssn6-like gene.
