It is claimed in a number of publications that P. pastoris is used for industrial protein production - but I have yet not found any explicit example. Can somebody help out on this? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.96.53.198 (talk) 17:24, 26 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2007-10-26T17:24:00.000Z","author":"91.96.53.198","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-91.96.53.198-2007-10-26T17:24:00.000Z-Untitled","replies":[]}}-->

Yes, indeed, P. pastoris has been used for industrial protein production. Here is one example, I was lazy to collect more, sorry: http://www.springerlink.com/content/j482nwk77rj3103w/ just google: Pichia pastoris Phillips Petroleum and you may even add SCP.

Most folk read it pee-she-a, while some read it Pee-key-a. Not that the etymology means much in how to pronounce it (no English speaker pronounces the ch in Escherichia as loch), but it may help folk decide. The internet says Hansen in 1904 named it after P. Pichi. As I don’t have the 1904 book I can’t guarantee it, but there it is. I tried searching in Italian for someone called Pietro or Paolo Pichi and combinations of "microbiologo XIX secolo” but only drew blanks. Assuming it is correct, the K version is more faithful to the Italian pronunciation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 139.80.3.29 (talk) 05:46, 17 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2014-04-17T05:46:00.000Z","author":"139.80.3.29","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-139.80.3.29-2014-04-17T05:46:00.000Z-Pronounciation","replies":[]}}-->

Recent articles indicate P. pastoris has been reclassified to Komagataella pastoris, eg. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19760441. This should probably be included in this article, though I don't know how to best reconcile it, especially because in practice, working biologists like myself still use the name Pichia despite it being deprecated.

The page title should really be changed -- now to Komagataella phaffii, as I understand it. "But people know it better as ..." is always the case whenever there's a nomenclature change, and never an excuse for perpetuating an obsolete name. There are a couple of solutions: put Pichia pastoris in parentheses as a synonym in the lede, and include a hatnote saying "Pichia pastoris redirects here"; or treat "pichia pastoris" (or just "pichia"), lower-case roman, as an anglicized common name. I think the former better reflects the actual state of affairs, but I wouldn't be violently opposed to the latter. Opinions?

Went ahead and done that. I opted for the long lead graph approach: it's ugly, but making a species the synonym of a whole genus in the infobox feels wrong. (Yes, technically the synonym only applies to K. pastoris, but you then ignore everything they peeled off from it. The six other species, including the industrially important phaffii.)
