| Description | Non-infectious Zika virus-like particles consist of Membrane, pre-Membrane and Envelope proteins. The VLPs are produced in HEK293 cells. |
| Background | Zika virus belongs to the family Flaviviridae and the genus Flavivirus, thus is related to the dengue, yellow fever, Japanese encephalitis, and West Nile viruses. Like other flaviviruses, Zika virus is enveloped and icosahedral and has a nonsegmented, single-stranded, 10 kilobase, positive-sense RNA genome. The RNA genome encodes seven nonstructural proteins and three structural proteins in the form of a single polyprotein (Q32ZE1). |
| Storage | -80˚C |
| Shipping | Dry ice |
A: These virus particles serve as a safe alternative to working with the actual Zika virus, thus reducing the potential risks associated in creating treatments or vaccines. They are utilized to study the virus's behavior, its interaction with host cells, and the immune response it elicits.
A: The Zika Virus-Like Particle we offer is validated by SDS-PAGE and has a purity greater than 95%.
