Expression of recombinant proteins in insect cells infected with baculoviruses is commonplace. This system provides an easy way to generate a significant amount of properly folded, functional protein with proper posttranslational modifications and can be used to effectively produce multi-protein complexes. This chapter describes an alternative method of expressing high order protein complexes in insect cell culture. Specific examples involving the expression of 5- and 8-protein complexes are discussed.
