Target Information

Baculoviruses infect invertebrates, with over 600 species described. Immature (larval) forms of moths are the most common hosts, but infections have also been found in sawflies, mosquitoes, and shrimp.
While baculoviruses can enter mammalian cells in culture, they do not replicate in mammalian or other vertebrate cells.
The gp64 envelope protein is essential for virus infectivity and is expressed on the surface of baculovirus-infected cells within six hours of infection.
