Abstract

The present invention provides: genetically modified yeasts such as mutant yeasts having an ability to produce N-linked sugar chains of Man5GlcNAc2 and a decreased ability to produce O-linked sugar chains, mutant yeasts having an ability to produce N-linked sugar chains of Man5GlcNAc2 and further having an ability to produce N-linked sugar chains of GlcNAc1Man5GlcNAc2, and mutant yeasts having an increased ability to produce and secrete proteins and an ability to produce N-linked sugar chains of Man5GlcNAc2; and a method for producing glycoproteins using them.
