Viral Structural Proteins Expression Service

Creative BioMart Vir-Sci is a professional biology company with experienced experts and a strong biological technology platform in this field. We can provide excellent viral structural protein expression services based on gene sequences provided by customers.

Viral Structural Proteins

Viral proteins can be divided into structural proteins and non-structures according to whether they exist in virus particles. The former refers to the proteins necessary to form a mature infectious virus particle. Viral structural proteins include capsid protein, envelope protein, and enzyme existing in the virus particle. The capsid protein is the protein that forms the structure of the virus capsid. The protein subunit formed by the folding of one or more polypeptide chains is the smallest unit of the capsid protein. The virus envelope is antigenic and its main function is to help the virus enter the host cell and maintain the structural integrity of the virion. Enzymes existing in the virus particle can be divided into two categories, one is the enzyme involved in the process of virus entry and release, such as the lysozyme of T4 phage, the neuraminidase of influenza virus, etc.; the other is the enzyme involved in the synthesis of virus macromolecules. Such as the reverse transcriptase of retroviruses, hepatotropic DNA viruses, all dsRNA viruses, negative-strand RNA viruses, and transcriptase that exist in some dsDNA virus virions.
