The IgG Fc was expressed in insect cells as a fusion protein with the signal sequence and transmembrane region of either the native baculovirus envelope protein gp64 or the human transferrin receptor as a type I or type II integral membrane protein, respectively."
"The IgG Fc fusion proteins formed functional homodimers on the surface of recBV-infected insect cells...
