Abstract excerpt
The variant VP1-Z of the polyomavirus coat protein VP1 has been recently described as an engineered fusion protein of VP1 and the antibody binding domain protein Z. This construct is able to specifically bind and functionally present antibodies on the surface of virus-like particles of VP1-Z. Here we demonstrate that with the binding of Herceptin, an antibody directed against the receptor tyrosine kinase ErbB2, a...
