Characterization of chimeric NoV VP1-MUC1 VLPs. A Detection of MUC1 epitope in chimeric NoV VP1-MUC1 produced in L. tarentolae cell lysates; tumour-associated MUC1 peptide served as a positive control, NoV VP1 L. tarentolae cell lysates served as an empty platform control and WT L. tarentolae cell lysates as a background control. The bars represent the mean values obtained from triplicate experiments. B Purification of chimeric NoV VP1-MUC1 VLPs in OptiPrep gradient. Western blotting analysis of the sequential fractions collected from ultracentrifugation in 30–40% gradient. Protein was detected in cell lysates using specific anti-MUC1 antibodies in fractions 6–8. C Electron micrograph of purified L. tarentolae-derived chimeric NoV VP1-MUC1 VLPs (scale bar: 200 nm)
