Porcine deltacoronavirus (PDCoV) is a major pathogen causing fatal diarrhea in suckling piglets, and there is currently a lack of effective vaccines and drugs to prevent and control the virus. The nonstructural protein 13 (NSP13) serves as a virus-coded helicase and is considered to be a crucial target for antiviral drugs, making it imperative to investigate the helicase activity of NSP13. In this study, the gene of PDCoV was synthesized and integrated into the prokaryotic expression vector pET-28a to construct the recombinant plasmid pET-28a-NSP13.
