The capsid protein of PCV2 was expressed by using a recombinant baculovirus with insect Tn5 cells. A large amount of 28-kDa protein was released into the culture medium and self-assembled into PCV2-like particles (PCV2-LPs) with a buoyant density of 1.365 g/cm(3) and a diameter of 20 nm. PCV2-LPs were efficiently expressed, yielding 1 mg of purified particles per 10(7) Tn5 cells. The PCV2-LPs have antigenicity similar to that of authentic PCV2 particles, allowing us to develop a method for sensitively detecting PCV2-specific IgG antibodies. In addition, the PCV2-LPs appeared to be the most promising PCV2 vaccine candidate, by virtue of their potent immunogenicity.
