Characterization of adeno-associated virus genomes isolated from human tissues.
Infection with wild-type adeno-associated virus (AAV) is common in humans, but very little is known about the in vivo biology of AAV. On a molecular level, it has been shown in cultured cells that AAV integrates in a site-specific manner on human chromosome 19, but this has never been demonstrated directly in infected human tissues. To that end, we tested 175 tissue samples for the presence of ...
متن کاملInfectious molecular clones of adeno-associated virus isolated directly from human tissues.
Adeno-associated virus (AAV) replication and biology have been extensively studied using cell culture systems, but there is precious little known about AAV biology in natural hosts. As part of our ongoing interest in the in vivo biology of AAV, we previously described the existence of extrachromosomal proviral AAV genomes in human tissues. In the current work, we describe the molecular structur...
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 کاملAdeno-associated virus type 2 as vector for human gene therapy: Characterization of virus-host interactions
Background. Recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) has many advantages for gene therapeutic applications in comparison to other vector systems. One of the most promising features is the ability of wild-type (wt) AAV to integrate site-specifically into human chromosome 19. However, this feature is lost in rAAV vectors due to the removal of the Rep coding sequences. Methods. HeLa cells were tr...
