Bioengineering of microorganisms through cloning and expression of genes in order to produce recombinants proteins and other primary and secondary metabolites, emphasizing in usage of methylotrophic yeasts as host organism. Genetic-molecular characterization and functional genomics of biological diversity are made in order to look for proteins or some other metabolites with feasible biologic activity with biomedical, industrial or agricultural application. Isolation, biochemical characterization and proteins engineering.
