The development of a baculovirus expression system for the production of Helicoverpa armigera stunt virus capsids for use in the encapsidation of foreign molecules
The capsid protein of Helicoverpa armigera stunt virus (HaSV) a T=4 insect virus was expressed in Spodoptera frugiperda 9 cells using a baculovirus vector. When the insect cells were infected at a high MOl the expressed coat protein assembled into virus-like particles (VLPs) that spontaneously under...
