摘要:
The invention in some aspects relates to isolated nucleic acids, compositions, and kits useful for identifying adeno-associated viruses in cells. In some aspects, the invention provides kits and methods for producing somatic transgenic animal models using recombinant AAV (rAAV) to an animal having at least one transgene that expresses a small interfering nucleic acid or at least one binding site for a miRNA.
摘要:
Chimpanzee serotype C68 proteins, peptides, and polypeptide are provided. Also provided are novel adenoviruses derived from these proteins, as well as compositions containing these proteins and methods of using same for immunization and therapy. Further, a rapid method for screening recombinant transformants using a visually detectable method is described.
摘要:
A method for isolating AAV viruses from cellular DNA of non-human primate (NHP) tissues by transfecting the DNA of NHP into 293 cells, rescuing the virus and amplifying it through serial passages in the presence of adenovirus helper functions is provided. Also provided are kits useful for performing this method.
摘要:
Novel cell lines useful for trans-complementing E1-deleted adenoviral vectors are described. The cell lines are capable of providing high yields of E1-deleted adenoviral vectors in the absence of replication-competent adenovirus over multiple passages.
摘要:
A method for producing recombinant adeno-associated virus in the absence of contaminating helper virus or wild-type virus involves culturing a mammalian host cell containing a transgene flanked by adeno-associated virus (AAV) inverse terminal repeats and under the control of regulatory sequences directing expression thereof, an AAV rep sequence and an AAV cap sequence under the control of regulatory sequences directing expression thereof, and the minimum adenovirus DNA required to express an E1a gene product, an E1b gene product and an E2a gene product, and isolating therefrom a recombinant AAV which expresses the transgene in the absence of contaminating helper virus or wildtype AAV. This method obviates a subsequent purification step to purify rAAV from contaminating virus. Also provided are various embodiments of the host cell.
摘要:
A recombinant adenoviral vector which has multiple adenovirus packaging domains is provided. This vector has advantages over conventional adenoviral vectors in packaging plasmid vectors into adenoviral capsids. Methods of making and using this vector are described.
