Abstract
The present invention relates to an expression vector which is induced by methanol and/or glycerol utilizing an alcohol oxidase gene of a methylotrophic yeast; a recombinant methylotrophic yeast containing said vector and capable of accumulating a significantly high amount of an expression product of a heterologous gene; and a method for producing useful products utilizing said recombinant. The expression vector is constructed by utilizing the promoter and terminator of an alcohol oxidase gene of methylotrophic yeast. Further, a significantly high amount of adenylate kinase, cytochrome C552 or peroxidase is produced by using said expression vector.
