Abstract excerpt
The unique region of the VP1 capsid protein of adeno-associated viruses (AAV) in common with autonomously replicating parvoviruses comprises a secreted phospholipase A2 (sPLA2) homology domain. While the sPLA2 domain of Minute Virus of Mice has recently been shown to mediate endosomal escape by l...
