Abstract:The microsporidian spore wall proteins, as the main components of the spore wall, play a key role in spore adherence to host cells and in recognition of the parasite by the host during the invasion process. In this study, we used the Bac-to-Bac baculovirus expression system to express the spore wall protein SWP26, fused to enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP), in the silkworm BmN cell line. The SWP26 and EGFP genes were inserted into the baculovirus transfer vector pFastBac1. The transfer vector pFastBac1… Show more
