a) Presentation of a target protein onto the exterior of a P22 VLP via a decoration protein (Dec). A genetic fusion facilitated binding of the target protein to the C-terminus of the Dec (green). A poly histidine tag (purple) was retained intact on the N-terminus of Dec to facilitate purification. The formed structure was used for exterior decoration of a P22 VLP (grey).
