Baculovirus
and
Expression
Vector
System
for
Insect
Cells - Development of baculovirus expression vector system is based on its life cycle which involves the following steps:
(i)in early phase (12 hours), virus particles are budded from infected cells and spread the virus;
(ii)In the late phase (2-5 days), occluded virus units accumulate in the nucleus and get embedded in protein polyhedra
(iii)Insect is decomposed releasing polyhedra
