Abstract
Mutant yeasts of the strain Pichia pastoris have been developed which contain relatively high levels of methionine. These high methionine content Pichia pastoris mutants grow on an oxygenated hydrocarbon such as methanol, to produce improved amino acid balance single-cell protein product eliminating or reducing the need to supplement single-cell protein with methionine when used as food supplements.
