Abstract excerpt
Due to its non-pathogenic lifecycle, little is known about the cellular determinants of infection by adeno-associated virus (AAV). To identify these critical cellular factors, we took advantage of the gene transfer abilities of AAV in combination with a forward genetic selection to identify proteins critical for transduction by this virus. AAV serotype 5 (AAV5) vectors encoding the furin gene were used to...
