ABSTRACT
Human norovirus (HuNoV) is the major etiological agent of nonbacterial gastroenteritis worldwide. However, due to the absence of a rapid and sensitive diagnostic system, detection and monitoring have been limited. The HuNoV genome is composed of three open reading frames (ORFs). And major capsid protein, ORF2, is designated as a viral protein 1 (VP1). In this study, the baculovirus expression system was used for expression of the HuNoV capsid protein, VP1. Recombinant baculoviruses can be used as potent tools in HuNoV studies.
