Surface loop dynamics in adeno-associated virus capsid assembly.
The HI loop is a prominent domain on the adeno-associated virus (AAV) capsid surface that extends from each viral protein (VP) subunit overlapping the neighboring fivefold VP. Despite the highly conserved nature of the residues at the fivefold pore, the HI loops surrounding this critical region vary significantly in amino acid sequence between the AAV serotypes. In order to understand the role ...
متن کاملProteolytic mapping of the adeno-associated virus capsid.
The three-dimensional structures of the viral capsid of three AAV serotypes have previously been determined by X-ray crystallography or cryoelectron microscopy. These studies of AAV and similar studies of autonomous parvoviruses have yielded important structural information about the virions in a low-energy conformation. However, there is little information on the structural properties of AAV v...
متن کاملGeneration of Helper Plasmids Encoding Mutant Adeno-associated Virus Type 2 Capsid Proteins with Increased Resistance against Proteasomal Degradation
Objective(s): Adeno-associated virus type 2 (AAV2) vectors are widely used for both experimental and clinical gene therapy. A recent research has shown that the performance of these vectors can be greatly improved by substitution of specific surface-exposed tyrosine residues with phenylalanines. In this study, a fast and simple method is presented to generate AAV2 vector helper plasmids encod...
متن کاملAdeno-associated virus proteins: origin of the capsid components.
The three primary capsid proteins (A, B, and C) of adeno-associated viruses have been shown previously to contain overlapping amino acid sequences (R. McPherson and J. Rose, J. Virol. 46:523-529, 1983). In the present study we demonstrate definitively that these proteins are encoded in the right half of the adeno-associated virus 2 genome, and one or both of the smallest adeno-associated RNA sp...
متن کاملImpact of capsid conformation and Rep-capsid interactions on adeno-associated virus type 2 genome packaging.
Single-stranded genomes of adeno-associated virus (AAV) are packaged into preformed capsids. It has been proposed that packaging is initiated by interaction of genome-bound Rep proteins to the capsid, thereby targeting the genome to the portal of encapsidation. Here we describe a panel of mutants with amino acid exchanges in the pores at the fivefold axes of symmetry on AAV2 capsids with reduce...
