Blocking virus infection with BacMam virus delivery bovine interferon-α gene.

Interferon-αs (IFN-αs) are crucial cytokines for inducing protective antiviral responses. The baculovirus-mediated gene transduction of mammalian cells (BacMam) is an efficient delivery tool for recombinant protein expression in mammalian cells. This study focuses on the delivery of bovine IFN-α (BoIFNα) using the BacMam system.
