The invention provides porcine
Delta coronavirus virus-like particles as well as a preparation method and application thereof. The method comprises the following steps: firstly, designing and amplifying a porcine
Delta coronavirus structural protein gene, constructing a recombinant
shuttle plasmid by using the
structural protein gene, constructing a recombinant bacmid by using the recombinant
shuttle plasmid, transfecting Sf9 cells with the recombinant bacmid to obtain a
recombinant baculovirus expressing the porcine
Delta coronavirus structural protein, infecting Sf9 cells with the
recombinant baculovirus, and performing purification to obtain the porcine Delta coronavirus-like particles. The preparation method provided by the invention uses the no-serum cultured Sf9 cells for expressionpreparation,
sucrose density solution ultracentrifugation is also used to obtain the PDCoV-VLP
virus-like particles, the PDCoV-VLP
virus-like particles have the advantages of integrity, good
immunogenicity, and
high titer and safety of an
antibody generated by immunizing animals, and can be used for preventing and treating porcine Delta coronavirus
virus diseases, so that the particles have good development and application prospects.
