Article Synopsis
  • The study focuses on the SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein (Ncap), which is important for diagnostics and vaccine development since the Covid-19 pandemic started in 2019.
  • Researchers successfully expressed and purified SARS-CoV-2 Ncap proteins in E. coli, specifically using a synthetic gene with a 6His affinity tag to enhance purification.
  • ELISA assays were conducted to compare the immune response of human sera to different Ncap proteins, showing no major differences between tagged and untagged versions, except a slight potential decrease in sensitivity to some Ncap variants.
