Structure 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...
متن کاملStructure of adeno-associated virus type 4.
Adeno-associated virus (AAV) is a member of the Parvoviridae, belonging to the Dependovirus genus. Currently, several distinct isolates of AAV are in development for use in human gene therapy applications due to their ability to transduce different target cells. The need to manipulate AAV capsids for specific tissue delivery has generated interest in understanding their capsid structures. The s...
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 biology.
Adeno-associated virus (AAV) was first discovered as a contaminant of adenovirus stocks in the 1960s. The development of recombinant AAV vectors (rAAV) was facilitated by early studies that generated infectious molecular clones, determined the sequence of the genome, and defined the genetic elements of the virus. The refinement of methods and protocols for the production and application of rAAV...
متن کاملEffects 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...
