“…One key merit of the bacmid expression vector system (BEVS) is its capability of expressing multiple proteins of interest (POIs) simultaneously via co-infection/co-transfection of several recombinant bacmids together [4]. Recently, BEVS using lepidopteran insects, e.g., silkworm ( Bombyx mori ), has enabled us to produce proteins of interest to a higher level with both a satisfactory quantity and quality, where the resulting POIs hold most desirable posttranslational modifications, especially glycosylation, which is considered to be essential for glycoproteins [5,6,7,8,9]. Those advantages should contribute greatly to reducing the cost of the commercial proteins, such as enzymes and vaccines in the market, although several issues such as the development of purification methods and the safety risk (e.g., contaminations form either insect- or baculovirus-derived substances) remain to be clarified.…”
