Association of high pressure and alkaline condition for solubilization of inclusion bodies and refolding of the NS1 protein from zika virus.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Baculovirus, which has a width of 40 nm and a length of 250-300 nm, can display functional peptides, receptors and antigens on its surface by their fusion with a baculovirus envelop protein, GP64. In addition, some transmembrane proteins can be displayed without GP64 fusion, using the native transmembrane do...
