Engineering Liver-detargeted AAV9 Vectors for Cardiac and Musculoskeletal Gene Transfer
3 Mar 2011
Abstract excerpt
We report the generation of a new class of adeno-associated virus serotype 9 (AAV9)-derived vectors displaying selective loss of liver tropism and demonstrating potential for cardiac and musculoskeletal gene transfer applications. Random mutagenesis of residues within a surface-exposed region of the major AAV9 capsid protein yielded a capsid library with mutations clustered at the icosahedral threefold symmetry...
