Recombination and Population Mosaic of a Multifunctional Viral Gene, Adeno-Associated Virus cap [PDF]
Homologous recombination is a dominant force in evolution and results in genetic mosaics. To detect evidence of recombination events and assess the biological significance of genetic mosaics, genome sequences for various viral populations of reasonably ...

Adeno-associated Virus DNA Replication [PDF]
ABSTRACT. A model for the replication of adeno-associated virus (AAV) DNA is presented. The AAV genome is a linear single-stranded DNA molecule which contains a 145 nucleotide inverted terminal repetition of which the first 125 nucleotides form a palindromic sequence.

Progress in the use of adeno-associated viral vectors for gene therapy [PDF]
The development of safe and efficient gene transfer vectors is crucial for the success of gene therapy trials. A viral vector system promising to meet these requirements is based on the apathogenic adeno-associated virus (AAV-2), a member of the ...

Viral Hybrid Vectors for Somatic Integration - Are They the Better Solution? [PDF]
The turbulent history of clinical trials in viral gene therapy has taught us important lessons about vector design and safety issues. Much effort was spent on analyzing genotoxicity after somatic integration of therapeutic DNA into the host genome. Based

Performance of AAV8 vectors expressing human factor IX from a hepatic-selective promoter following intravenous injection into rats [PDF]
Background: Vectors based on adeno-associated virus-8 (AAV8) have shown efficiency and efficacy for liver-directed gene therapy protocols following intravascular injection, particularly in relation to haemophilia gene therapy. AAV8 has also been proposed

Adeno-Associated Virus-Induced Dorsal Root Ganglion Pathology.
The administration of adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors to nonhuman primates (NHP) via the blood or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) can lead to dorsal root ganglion (DRG) pathology.

Process Improvement of Adeno-Associated Virus Production
Adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) have been well characterized and used to deliver therapeutic genes for diseases treatment in clinics and basic research. This study used the triple transient transfection of AAV-DJ/8 as a model expression system to develop

Human Immune Responses to Adeno-Associated Virus (AAV) Vectors
Recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) vectors are one of the most promising in vivo gene delivery tools. Several features make rAAV vectors an ideal platform for gene transfer. However, the high homology with the parental wild-type virus, which often

Sustained high-level expression of human factor IX (hFIX) after liver-targeted delivery of recombinant adeno-associated virus encoding the hFIX gene in rhesus macaques [PDF]
The feasibility, safety, and efficacy of liver-directed gene transfer was evaluated in 5 male macaques (aged 2.5 to 6.5 years) by using a recombinant adeno-associated viral (rAAV) vector (rAAV-2 CAGG-hFIX) that had previously mediated persistent ...
