Effects of adeno-associated virus DNA hairpin structure on recombination.
Hairpin DNA ends are evolutionarily conserved intermediates in DNA recombination. The hairpin structures present on the ends of the adeno-associated virus (AAV) genome are substrates for recombination that give rise to persistent circular and concatemeric DNA episomes through intramolecular and intermolecular recombination, respectively. We have developed circularization-dependent and orientati...
متن کاملInteraction of wild-type and mutant adeno-associated virus (AAV) Rep proteins on AAV hairpin DNA.
Both the Rep68 and Rep78 proteins of adeno-associated virus type 2 (AAV) bind to AAV terminal repeat hairpin DNA and can mediate site-specific nicking in vitro at the terminal resolution site (trs) within the terminal repeats. To define the regions of the Rep proteins required for these functions, a series of truncated Rep78 derivatives was created. Wild-type and mutant proteins were synthesize...
متن کاملMolecular structure of adeno-associated virus variant DNA.
When lysates of human cells, infected jointly with the defective parvovirus, adeno-associated virus (AAV), and a helper adenovirus, are banded to equilibrium in CsCl buoyant density gradients, virus particles of various densities are obtained. Infectious AAV particles mainly band at a density of 1.41 g/cm3 with a minor component at 1.45 g/cm3. Noninfectious AAV particles band at densities betwe...
متن کاملAdeno-associated virus vectors for short hairpin RNA expression.
Five recent publications have documented the successful development and use of gene transfer vectors based on adeno-associated virus (AAV) for expressing short hairpin RNA (shRNA). In cultured mammalian cells and in whole animals, infection with these vectors was shown to result in specific, efficient, and stable knockdown of various targeted endo- or exogenous genes. Here we review this exciti...
متن کاملStructure of adeno-associated virus serotype 5.
Adeno-associated virus serotype 5 (AAV5) requires sialic acid on host cells to bind and infect. Other parvoviruses, including Aleutian mink disease parvovirus (ADV), canine parvovirus (CPV), minute virus of mice, and bovine parvovirus, also bind sialic acid. Hence, structural homology may explain this functional homology. The amino acids required for CPV sialic acid binding map to a site at the...
