Purification of virus-like particles (VLPs) expressed in the silkworm Bombyx mori.
Biotechnology Letters 2018 April
Virus-like particles (VLPs) are a promising and developing option for vaccination and gene therapy. They are also interesting as shuttles for drug targeting. Currently, several different gene expression systems are available, among which the silkworm expression system is known for its mass production capacity. However, cost-effective purification with high purity of the target protein is a particular bottleneck for this system. The present review evaluates the advances in the purification of VLPs, especially from silkworm larval hemolymph. Beginning with applicable pre-treatments for VLPs over to chromatography methods and quality control of the purified VLPs. Whereupon the main focus is on the different chromatography approaches for the purification, but the structure of the VLPs and their intended use for humans make also the quality control important. Within this, the stability of the VLPs which has to be considered for the purification is as well discussed.
