Novel viral expression system
A novel yeast expression system was developed in the lab of Prof. Manfred Schmitt from the Department of Applied Molecular Biology of the Saarland University which is based on recombinant derivatives of the yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) virus ScV. The system allows the efficient in vivo assembly of hybrid virus-like particles (VLPs) which have the potential for being used in recombinant vaccine development as well as in heterologous protein production.
