    Abstract: Provided are methods of modulating the persistence of the expression in a cell of a transgene, such as a transgene in a non-Herpes vector or in at least E4null adenoviral vector, and related systems. One method comprises contacting the cell with a non-Herpes vector comprising and expressing a gene encoding HSV ICP0, whereupon expression of HSV ICP0 the persistence of expression of the transgene is modulated. Further provided is a system for modulating the persistence of expression of a transgene, which system comprises a non-Herpes vector comprising (i) a gene encoding HSV ICP0 and (ii) a transgene, wherein the HSV ICP0 modulates the persistence of expression of the transgene and either the non-Herpes vector comprises the transgene or the system further comprises a vector, in which case the vector comprises the transgene. Another method comprises contacting the cell with an at least E4null adenoviral vector comprising (i) a transgene and (ii) a gene encoding a trans-acting factor, wherein the trans-acting factor modulates the persistence of expression of the transgene and the gene encoding the trans-acting factor is not from the E4 region of an adenovirus. Yet another method comprises contacting a cell simultaneously or sequentially with (i) an at least E4null adenoviral vector comprising a transgene and (ii) a viral vector comprising a gene encoding a trans-acting factor, which is not from the E4 region of an adenovirus and which modulates the persistence of expression of the transgene. Also provided is a system for modulating the persistence of expression of a transgene in an at least E4null adenoviral vector, which system comprises (i) an at least E4null adenoviral vector comprising a transgene and (ii) a gene encoding a trans-acting factor, wherein the gene encoding the trans-acting factor is not from the E4 region of an adenovirus, the trans-acting factor modulates the persistence of expression of the transgene, and either the at least E4null adenoviral vector comprises the gene encoding the trans-acting factor or the system comprises a viral vector, in which case the viral vector comprises the gene encoding the trans-acting factor.

    Abstract: The invention provides adenoviral coat proteins comprising various non-native ligands. Further, the present invention provides an adenoviral vector that elicits less reticulo-endothelial system (RES) clearance in a host animal than a corresponding wild-type adenovirus. Also provided by the invention is a system comprising a cell having a non-native cell-surface receptor and a virus having a non-native ligand, wherein the non-native ligand of the virus binds the non-native cell-surface receptor of the cell. Using this system, a virus can be propagated. Further provided by the invention is a method of controlled gene expression utilizing selectively replication competence, a method of assaying for gene function, a method of isolating a nucleic acid, and a method of identifying functionally related coding sequences. Additionally, the invention provides a cell-surface receptor, which facilitates internalization.

    Abstract: The invention provides cells, particularly NCI-H460 cells and Calu-1 cells, for the propagation of replication-deficient adenoviral vectors. The cells are lung carcinomas with either a wild-type p53 gene or a heterozygous K-ras mutation. The cells comprise at least one adenoviral nucleic acid sequence, which upon expression produces a gene product that complements for at least one essential gene function of one or more regions of an adenoviral genome so as to propagate a replication-deficient adenoviral vector comprising an adenoviral genome deficient in the at least one essential gene function of the one or more regions when present in the cell.

    Abstract: The present invention provides a chimeric adenovirus fiber protein, which differs from the wild-type coat protein by the introduction of a nonnative amino acid sequence in a conformationally-restrained manner. Such a chimeric adenovirus fiber protein according to the invention is able to direct entry into cells of a vector comprising the chimeric fiber protein that is more efficient than entry into cells of a vector that is identical except for comprising a wild-type adenovirus fiber protein rather than the chimeric adenovirus fiber protein. The nonnative amino acid sequences encodes a peptide motif that comprises an epitope for an antibody, or a ligand for a cell surface receptor, that can be employed in cell targeting. The present invention also pertains to vectors comprising such a chimeric adenovirus fiber protein, and to methods of using such vectors.
