Abstract
Baculovirus-insect cell expression (BEV) has become one of the most widely used eukaryotic systems for heterologous protein expression. The combination of engineered baculovirus genomes together with a variety of compatible vectors, robust insect cell lines, serum-free media and commercial kits have made it a standard workhorse in many "non-virology-expert" laboratories. Despite these significant improvements, the BEV system still has major drawbacks, primarily the time required to amplify recombinant virus and its inherent instability. Here we present an easy-to-adopt simplified and shortened protocol.
