Abstract
⺠Sequence insertion at antigenic domain of HEV-VLP does not interfere with icosahedral assembly. ⺠Sequence insertion induces conformational changes at HEV antigenic domain leading to deterioration in antibody-binding. ⺠Sequence insertion introduces a trypsin cleavage site in the recombinant HEV capsid protein. ⺠The chimeric VLP remains intact after trypsin cleavage.
