摘要

The nucleocapsid (N) protein of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARSCoV) is the most abundant structural protein in virus-infected cells. Its primary function is to pack ~30 kb positive-sense viral RNA genome that includes a 5’ cap into a ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complex known as capsid. Among the 4 major structural proteins of SARS-CoV, the N protein exhibits the highest expression levels in the host cells. We produced a recombinant SARS-CoV N protein (SARSN1) and used it to detect specific antibodies in mice vaccinated with a live probiotic vaccine containing the coronavirus nucleocapsid protein.
