| Abstract: | The baculovirus vector systems has been extensively used for the expression of foreign gene products in insect and mammalian cells. New advances increase the possibilities and applications of the baculovirus expression system, which has the capability to express multiple genes simultaneously within a single infected insect cells and to use recombinant virus with mammalian cell-active expression cassettes to permit expression of recombinant proteins in mammalian cells in vitro and in vivo. Future investigations of the baculovirus expression system designed for specific target cells, can open wide variety of applications. This review summarizes the recent achievements in applications the baculovirus vector systems and optimization recombinant protein expression in both insect and mammalian cell lines. |
