The baculovirus expression system harnesses insect-specific viruses, notably Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV), to achieve high-level recombinant protein production in ...

Thanks to a clever modification of the baculovirus, vaccines can now be produced in insect cells more easily and cleaner. Researchers at Wageningen University & Research (WUR) have successfully ...

Many insects rely on heritable bacterial endosymbionts for essential nutrients that they cannot get through their diet. A new study, published in Nature Communications, indicates that the genomes of ...
