a Structure and design of the NDV-HXP-S genome. The ectodomain of the spike was connected to the transmembrane domain and cytoplasmic tail (TM/CT) of the F protein (blue: the ectodomain of the spike; black: NDV components; gray: NDV F gene with L289A mutation). The original polybasic cleavage site was removed by mutating RRAR to A. The HexaPro (F817P, A892P, A899P, A942P, K986P, and V987P) stabilizing mutations were introduced. The sequence was codon-optimized for mammalian host expression. b Protein staining of NDV-HXP-S. WT NDV as well as NDV-HXP-S were partially purified from the allantoic fluid through a sucrose cushion and resuspended in PBS. In all, 5 µg (1) and 10 µg (2) of the WT NDV, as well as 10 µg of NDV-HXP-S were resolved on 4–20% SDS–PAGE. The viral proteins were visualized by Coomassie Blue staining (L, S[Blue], HN, N, P, and M). A representative image out of more than three independent experiments is shown.
