Expression of viral envelope or capside proteins results self-assembly of virus-like particles (VLP-s). VLP-s could be produced in different cell systems, including mammalian, insect, yeast and plant cells. One good possibility to produce membrane proteins in functional and correct conformational manner is expression of these proteins in composition of virus like particles (VLP-s). VLP-s could be used for different approaches e.g. vaccine development, investigation of receptor functions and also for purification of different membrane proteins.
