Energetic changes caused by antigenic module insertion in a virus-like particle revealed by experiment and molecular dynamics simulations.
The success of recombinant virus-like particles (VLPs) for human papillomavirus and hepatitis B demonstrates the potential of VLPs as safe and efficacious vaccines. With new modular designs emerging, the effects of antigen module insertion on the self-assembly and structural integrity of VLPs should...
