The recombinant protein expression was conī€rmed by SDS-PAGE and western blotting methods using both monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies in dimeric form under non-denaturing condition retaining the conformational epitopes. This could be used as a coating antigen for developing discriminatory diagnostic ELISAs for regular sero-monitoring of animals and also during outbreak situations.enCloning of Erns Gene of Classical Swine Fever Virus and Characterization of the Expressed Recombinant Protein in Prokaryotic SystemArticle
