Protein nanoparticles assemble in plants, display antigenic viral peptides, and produce an epitope‐specific immune response

The FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 7, Page 1891-1907, April 2026.
Current methods to control porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome, a disease affecting pigs, are insufficient and a safer, more effective vaccine is needed. This study describes the design and plant production of a self‐assembling protein nanoparticle vaccine candidate against this disease.
