Zika Envelope Virus-like Particles (Zika Envelope VLPs) (CAT#: S01YF-0922-KX1554)

Recombinant Zika Virus-like Particles (Zika VLPs) are produced in mammalian HEK293 human cells, assembled with Envelope protein. VLP is mimicking the native 3D structure of viruses which can elicit strong immune responses. However, VLPs lack viral genomic material which makes them non-infectious, unable to replicate and enhance the safety during manufacture and administration. Zika VLPs can be used in the development of ZIKV diagnostics and in vaccine development and R&D (including use as an immunogen).

  • Flaviviridae
  • Virus Species
  • Zika virus
  • Virus Overview
  • Zika virus (ZIKV) is a member of the virus family Flaviviridae. It is spread by daytime-active Aedes mosquitoes. Its name comes from the Ziika Forest of Uganda, where the virus was first isolated in 1947. Zika virus shares a genus with the dengue, yellow fever, Japanese encephalitis, and West Nile viruses. The infection, known as Zika fever or Zika virus disease, often causes no or only mild symptoms, similar to a very mild form of dengue fever.
  • Virus Structure
  • Enveloped, single-stranded, positive-sense RNA virus
