Analysis of recombinant adeno-associated virus packaging and requirements for rep and cap gene products
1 Mar 1997
Abstract excerpt
Adeno-associated virus (AAV) is a human parvovirus currently being developed as a vector for gene therapy applications. Because the gene transfer vector commonly retains only the AAV terminal repeats, propagation of recombinant AAV (rAAV) requires that the viral replication (Rep) and capsid (Cap) proteins be supplied in trans. In an effort to optimize the production of these vectors, a panel of helper plasmids...
