Feline calicivirus capsid protein expression and self-assembly in cultured feline cells.
Feline calicivirus (FCV) capsid protein was expressed in feline cells employing the vaccinia virus MVA/T7 RNA polymerase system. The precursor protein was processed to a mature size protein that assembled to virus like particles (VLPs).
