Research Abstract |
Virus-like particles (VLP) may be utilized as vaccine vector of oral and/or immersion vaccination of fish. Hence, generation of VLP from the recombinant coat protein of viral nervous necrosis (VNN) was assessed in this study. Recombinant coat protein was generated by Escherichia coli BL21 harboring the coat protein gene. The recombinant coat protein was effectively purified by a sucrose density-gradient centrifugation method. However, irregular-shaped VLPs were observed in the sample by electron microscopy.
