Cross-Dressing the Virion: the Transcapsidation of Adeno-Associated Virus Serotypes Functionally Defines Subgroups
12 Apr 2004
Abstract excerpt
For all adeno-associated virus (AAV) serotypes, 60 monomers of the Vp1, Vp2, and Vp3 structural proteins assemble via an unknown mechanism to form an intact capsid. In an effort to better understand the properties of the capsid monomers and their role in viral entry and infection, we evaluated whether monomers from distinct serotypes can be mixed to form infectious particles with unique phenotypes. This...
