- Abstract: Baculovirus expression vector system (BEVS) has been successfully applied to the over-expression of various proteins, thus providing sufficient materials for vaccine research. Compared to other systems, BEVS has many advantages: baculovirus solely being parasitic in invertebrates, the resultant products conferring high safety to mammalian, high expression level of recombinant proteins, preferable folding for eukaryotic protein, proper post-translational modification required for biological function, suitable for multiple genes co-expression and large-scale production with serum-free culture media. To better understand the advantages and prospective of BEVS for the vaccine research, this article will review the development of BEVS and its application on vaccine research.
