A K. lactis recombinant strain was constructed and a sustainable culture medium, based on a mixture of cheese whey and beet molasses, was optimized for high productivity of S. cerevisiae α-galactosidase, thus contributing to the circular economy by producing a heterologous enzyme from two agro-industrial wastes.
