ABSTRACT. Conventional methods for covalent immobilization of proteins often result in denaturation due to chemical treatments. However, proteins immobilized at microbial cell surfaces by regular cellular processes could be bound covalently to the cell wall without being exposed to chemical treatment. Yeasts display systems provide several advantages over bacterial system. The secretory and post-translational pathway in yeast, are similar to those of higher eukaryotes which established them as better hosts for production of eukaryotic proteins. The expression of recombinant proteins immobilized at the cell surface ofSaccharomyces cerevisiae has now been practiced for the last two decades. Although different surface display systems have been made for specific purposes, the system with broad applicability has not been developed so far. Most of the vectors constructed for surface display of recombinant proteins in yeast so far were created for single-use in particular case with ubiquitous laboratory plasmids that were not optimized for this purpose. Therefore, the construction of a new set of plasmids with optimized genetic cassette is still in demand. An optimized genetic cassette should allow easy and simple insertion of any gene of interest, with regulated and easily controlled expression level. In this review, we have tried to make a detailed study on all the genetic components used in successful yeast display systems till now in order to provide a good knowledge which will help the future researchers of this field to design an optimized genetic cassette which would be used for industrial scale application.

KEYWORDS: Yeast display system, yeast cell wall proteins, genetic cassette and recombinant protein.
