Although porcine circovirus-like particles can function as a vector to carry foreign peptides into host cells, displaying foreign peptides on the surface of virus-like particles (VLPs) remains challenging. In this study, a plateau, consisting of the middle portion of Loop CD (MP-Lcd) from two neighboring subunits of PCV2 capsid protein (Cap), was identified as an ideal site to insert various foreign peptides or epitopes and display them on the surface of PCV2 VLPs. One of the goals of this work is to determine if the surface pattern of this pla...
