Expression and immunogenicity of nsp10 protein of porcine epidemic diarrhea virus.

Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV), a swine enteropathogenic coronavirus, causes lethal watery diarrhea to the piglets, which poses significant economic losses and public health concerns. The nsp10 protein of PEDV is essential regulatory subunits that are critical for virus replication. Since PEDV nsp10 is a crucial regulator of viral RNA synthesis, it is promising that nsp10 might become anti-virus drugs target or candidate for rapid diagnosis of PEDV infection.
