Insect cell as a host of viruses is extensively used for producing heterologous recombinant proteins. The eukaryotic proteins expressed by the insect cell is posttranslationally modified and harvested in a short period of time. The insect cell expression has been applied to both basic research and commercial applications. A large scale of proteins produced by the insect cell expression system are settled for researching the structure and function of the eukaryotic proteins, and the expression system integrated with routine biochemical techniques plays a significant role in diagnostic procedure and therapeutic approaches for the disease.
