Biochemical characterization of adeno-associated virus rep68 DNA helicase and ATPase activities.
The adeno-associated virus (AAV) nonstructural proteins Rep68 and Rep78 are site-specific DNA binding proteins, ATP-dependent site-specific endonucleases, helicases, and ATPases. These biochemical activities are required for viral DNA replication and control of viral gene expression. In this study, we characterized the biochemical properties of the helicase and ATPase activities of homogeneousl...
متن کاملAdeno-associated virus type 5 utilizes alternative translation initiation to encode a small Rep40-like protein.
Alternative splicing of adeno-associated virus type 2 (AAV2) P19-generated pre-mRNAs generates the small Rep proteins Rep52 and Rep40, which differ in their carboxyl termini. Both proteins are required for optimal packaging of AAV2 genomes. AAV5 Rep-encoding P19-generated transcripts are primarily polyadenylated within the central intron and not efficiently spliced; however, surprisingly, AAV5 ...
متن کاملGenetics of adeno-associated virus: isolation and preliminary characterization of adeno-associated virus type 2 mutants.
We constructed insertion and deletion mutants with mutations within the adeno-associated virus (AAV) sequences of the infectious recombinant plasmid pSM620. Studies of these mutants revealed at least three AAV phenotypes. Mutants with mutations between 11 and 42 map units were partially or completely defective for rescue and replication of the AAV sequences from the recombinant plasmids (rep mu...
متن کاملAdeno-Associated Virus titer and aggregation characterization
In this application note, we describe a novel method to rapidly measure the size and concentration of Adeno-Associated Virus (AAV) utilizing the Nanoparticle Tracking Analysis (NTA) technique and a gold labeling method. By labeling AAV capsids with small gold nanoparticles, we were able to increase the amount of light scattered by each capsid, enabling rapid NTA characterization to determine th...
متن کاملRole of the herpes simplex virus helicase-primase complex during adeno-associated virus DNA replication.
A subset of DNA replication proteins of herpes simplex virus (HSV) comprising the single-strand DNA-binding protein, ICP8 (UL29), and the helicase-primase complex (UL5, UL8, and UL52 proteins) has previously been shown to be sufficient for the replication of adeno-associated virus (AAV). We recently demonstrated complex formation between ICP8, AAV Rep78, and the single-stranded DNA AAV genome, ...
