| inhibition of bovine papillomavirus plasmid dna replication by adeno-associated virus. | the helper-dependent human parvovirus adeno-associated virus type 2 (aav) inhibits both the oncogenic transforming abilities and the dna replication of its helper viruses, adenovirus (ad), and herpes simplex virus (hsv). as aav-2 also inhibits the transforming ability of bovine papillomavirus type 1 (bpv), aav-2 was assayed for its ability to inhibit bpv plasmid dna replication. here we find that the aav-2 rep78 gene is able to trans-inhibit bpv plasmid dna replication and that the aav-2 termina ... | 1992 | 1318608 |
| detection of adeno-associated virus type 2 in human peripheral blood cells. | the non-pathogenic human parvovirus, adeno-associated virus (aav) is helper virus-dependent. however, it integrates into the cellular genome in the absence of its helper viruses. therefore it could become a useful vector for gene therapy. previous studies and our own results have shown that 40 to 80% of adults are seropositive for aav and that seroconversion occurs during the first few years of life, but little is known about the route of natural infection with the virus. we used the polymerase ... | 1992 | 1321880 |
| regulated high level expression of a human gamma-globin gene introduced into erythroid cells by an adeno-associated virus vector. | gene therapy of severe hemoglobinopathies will require high-level expression of a transferred globin gene in erythroid cells. distant regulatory elements flanking the beta-globin gene cluster, the locus control region, are needed for appropriate expression. we have explored the use of a human parvovirus, the adeno-associated virus (aav), for globin gene transfer. the human a gamma-globin gene, linked to hypersensitivity site 2 from the locus control region of the beta-globin gene cluster, was su ... | 1992 | 1323131 |

| cloning and integration of dna fragments in human cells via the inverted terminal repeats of the adeno-associated virus 2 genome. | in current systems for molecular cloning of eukaryotic genes, bacterial cells are routinely utilized as intermediate hosts. we investigated the possibility of using a viral system for cloning dna fragments independent of bacterial cell usage. in this report, we provide an alternative approach for molecular cloning of dna fragments in eukaryotic cells by utilizing the inverted terminal repeats (itrs) of the genome of a nonpathogenic human parvovirus, the adeno-associated virus 2 (aav). we constru ... | 1992 | 1327964 |
| adenovirus containing a deletion of the early region 2a gene allows growth of adeno-associated virus with decreased efficiency. | efficient growth of adeno-associated virus (aav) requires helper functions provided by a coinfecting adenovirus or herpesvirus. earlier studies using adenoviruses having temperature-sensitive lesions in the early region 2a gene (e2a) produced contradictory evidence regarding the role of the e2a 72-kda dna-binding protein (dbp) in allowing efficient aav growth. these disparate results may reflect varying levels of residual function in the temperature-sensitive dbp. we examined this issue using an ... | 1992 | 1329332 |
| adeno-associated virus type 2-mediated inhibition of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (hiv-1) replication: involvement of p78rep/p68rep and the hiv-1 long terminal repeat. | microinjection of wild-type adeno-associated virus type 2 (aav-2) dna and infectious human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (hiv-1) proviral dna into the nuclei of human epithelioid sw480 cells leads to specific inhibition of hiv-1 replication. mutational analysis of the aav genome showed that this negative interference can be assigned to a functional aav-2 rep gene. moreover, the p78rep/p68rep proteins are sufficient for the anti-hiv-1 effects. the rep gene also inhibits the expression of a chlora ... | 1992 | 1331299 |
| assembly of viruslike particles by recombinant structural proteins of adeno-associated virus type 2 in insect cells. | the three capsid proteins vp1, vp2, and vp3 of the adeno-associated virus type 2 (aav-2) are encoded by overlapping sequences of the same open reading frame. separate expression of these proteins by recombinant baculoviruses in insect cells was achieved by mutation of the internal translation initiation codons. coexpression of vp1 and vp2, vp2 and vp3, and all three capsid proteins and the expression of vp2 alone in sf9 cells resulted in the production of viruslike particles resembling empty cap ... | 1992 | 1331503 |

| colocalization of adeno-associated virus rep and capsid proteins in the nuclei of infected cells. | the mechanism of adeno-associated virus (aav) dna replication was characterized both genetically and biochemically. in this study, we used monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies to examine the aav p5 (rep78 and rep68) and p19 (rep52 and rep40) proteins in infected cells. by overexpressing a truncated rep78 protein in escherichia coli, we obtained monoclonal antibody anti-78/68, which is specific for the p5 rep proteins, and monoclonal antibody anti-52/40, which recognized both the p5 and p19 rep p ... | 1992 | 1370086 |
| replication of adeno-associated virus type 2 in human lymphocytic cells and interaction with hiv-1. | adeno-associated virus (aav) is a nonpathogenic parvovirus which normally requires helper adenovirus or herpes-virus for replication. we examined the growth of aav type 2 in human lymphocytes and its possible interaction with hiv-1. three b cell lines (ck-b, hs-2, and uc729) and four t cell lines (molt-4, jurkat, hut78, and hut78+hiv, which is persistently infected with hiv-1) were infected with aav either in the presence or in the absence of adenovirus. aav dna was found in cells of all the lin ... | 1992 | 1372138 |

| inhibition of h-ras expression by the adeno-associated virus rep78 transformation suppressor gene product. | here the adeno-associated virus rep78 gene product was found to inhibit the expression of the chloramphenicol acetyltransferase and the bladder cancer-derived ej-h-ras coding sequences when they were under the control of the natural cellular h-ras regulatory sequences. however, rep78 had little or no effect on the expression of these same coding sequences when they were under the control of the regulatory sequences of the murine osteosarcoma virus long terminal repeat. these data indicate that t ... | 1991 | 1647267 |
| the evolution of defective and autonomous parvoviruses. | because of the small size and genetic simplicity of small dna viruses, parvoviruses would appear to be excellent models for studying viral evolution and adaptation. in an earlier publication we hypothesized the evolution of sequences of cellular "junk" dna into protective interfering transposons. these transposons would interfere with invading pathogenic viruses by competing with the pathogen dna for replicative enzymes. we speculated that a small, defective parvovirus, the adeno-associated viru ... | 1991 | 1648152 |
| adeno-associated virus rep proteins produced in insect and mammalian expression systems: wild-type and dominant-negative mutant proteins bind to the viral replication origin. | the adeno-associated virus (aav) rep gene proteins, rep78 and rep68, are required for replication of aav dna and bind to the aav replication origin. an aav genome having a lys340 to his (k340h) mutation in the consensus purine nucleotide binding site of the rep gene protein exhibited a dominant-negative phenotype for dna replication. we synthesized both wild-type and the k340h mutant rep78 protein in a baculovirus expression system. nuclear extracts of sf9 cells containing these proteins were ex ... | 1991 | 1651588 |
| adeno-associated viruses having nonsense mutations in the capsid genes: growth in mammalian cells containing an inducible amber suppressor. | when an adeno-associated virus (aav) genome contained in a recombinant plasmid is transfected into adenovirus-infected cells, infectious aav particles are efficiently generated. we previously described the construction of a conditional lethal mutant of aav having an amber termination codon inserted in the rep gene. this mutant was propagated on a monkey kidney cell line (supd12) having an inducible amber suppressor trnaser. we now describe the construction and propagation of two additional condi ... | 1991 | 1651593 |
| mapping and direct visualization of a region-specific viral dna integration site on chromosome 19q13-qter. | a human parvovirus, adeno-associated virus (aav), is unique among eukaryotic dna viruses in its ability to integrate site specifically into a defined region of human chromosome 19. in this study we used in situ hybridization to visualized directly the site of aav dna integration in latently infected human cell lines and normal human cells. | 1991 | 1653762 |

| adeno-associated virus rep protein inhibits human immunodeficiency virus type 1 production in human cells. | the adeno-associated virus (aav) rep gene encodes four proteins (rep78, rep68, rep52, and rep40) required for aav dna replication and aav gene regulation. in addition, the rep proteins may have pleiotropic regulatory effects in heterologous systems, and in particular rep78 may mediate a negative regulatory effect. we analyzed the effects of the aav rep gene on human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (hiv-1) gene expression. the rep gene proteins of aav type 2 (aav2) inhibited the trans-activating ab ... | 1991 | 1845899 |
| a subset of herpes simplex virus replication genes provides helper functions for productive adeno-associated virus replication. | herpesviruses are helper viruses for productive adeno-associated virus (aav) replication. to analyze the herpes simplex virus type 1 (hsv-1) functions mediating helper activity, we coinfected hela cells with aav type 2 (aav-2) and different hsv-1 mutants defective in individual hsv replication genes. aav replication was fully accomplished in the absence of hsv dna replication and thus did not require expression of late hsv genes. in addition, hsv mutants lacking either the origin-binding protein ... | 1991 | 1850024 |
| infection with adeno-associated parvovirus leads to increased sensitivity of mammalian cells to stress. | infection of the sv40-transformed syrian hamster cells elona with adeno-associated parvovirus type 5 (aav-5) affects the cellular stress response. stress-induced growth delay becomes permanent and this promotes cell death. aav dna is replicated in the absence of helper virus. induction of an incomplete stress response by cycloheximide treatment still results in replication of viral dna but not in virus-mediated growth arrest. thus, the reactions that induce aav dna replication and that direct gr ... | 1991 | 1850906 |
| acquisition of the human adeno-associated virus type-2 rep gene by human herpesvirus type-6. | human herpesvirus type-6 (hhv-6) is a recently isolated herpesvirus which is highly prevalent in adult populations around the world. hhv-6 was first isolated from the peripheral blood of six individuals with lymphoproliferative disorders, two of whom were also infected with human immunodeficiency virus. hhv-6, in common with other herpesviruses, transactivates the hiv long terminal repeat linked to reporter genes and has in addition been shown to accelerate hiv gene expression and cd4 cell death ... | 1991 | 1851252 |
| in vitro resolution of covalently joined aav chromosome ends. | we have developed an assay for a key step in the replication of adeno-associated virus (aav) dna. we demonstrate the covalently joined ends of linear aav dna can be resolved in vitro to the open duplex configuration. only extracts prepared from human cells that have been infected with both adenovirus and aav are capable of carrying out the reaction. the reaction is initiated by a site-specific and strand-specific endonucleolytic cut at a terminal resolution site near the end of the aav terminal ... | 1990 | 2153052 |
| adeno-associated parvoviruses inhibit growth of cells derived from malignant human tumors. | infection of freshly established malignant human tumor cells with the adeno-associated viruses aav-2 or aav-5 inhibits cell proliferation. normal human fibroblasts are also affected, but appear to partially escape the inhibition. in cell cultures of permanent lines of human and rodent origin, cell number reduction could not be observed. the aav-mediated influence on cell growth is not due to helper-independent replication of the virus, since neither of the cell cultures supported aav propagation ... | 1990 | 2153636 |
| site-specific integration by adeno-associated virus. | cellular sequences flanking integrated copies of the adeno-associated virus (aav) genome were isolated from a latently infected clonal human cell line and used to probe genomic blots derived from an additional 21 independently derived clones of human cells latently infected with aav. in genomic blots of uninfected human cell lines and of primary human tissue, each flanking-sequence probe hybridized to unique bands, but in 15 of the 22 latently infected clones the flanking sequences hybridized no ... | 1990 | 2156265 |
| mutation of a consensus purine nucleotide binding site in the adeno-associated virus rep gene generates a dominant negative phenotype for dna replication. | adeno-associated virus (aav) contains a multifunctional nonstructural gene, rep, which is required for aav dna replication and has pleiotropic effects on positive and negative regulation of gene expression. all of the parvovirus nonstructural genes contain a region of highly conserved amino acid homology. within this conserved region is the consensus sequence for a purine nucleotide binding site. we constructed a mutant aav having a mutation in this site by converting lysine 340 to histidine. th ... | 1990 | 2157057 |
| the adenovirus dna-binding protein stimulates the rate of transcription directed by adenovirus and adeno-associated virus promoters. | the dna-binding protein (dbp) encoded by the e2a region of adenovirus type 5 was found to enhance the expression of a reporter gene controlled by several different promoters within transfected cells. the rate of synthesis of correctly initiated transcripts was increased by the dbp. the adeno-associated virus p5 promoter and the adenovirus e1a and e2a early and major late promoters responded to the dbp by increases in expression ranging from 6- to 27-fold, while the adenovirus e4 promoter was sli ... | 1990 | 2157873 |
| the aav origin binding protein rep68 is an atp-dependent site-specific endonuclease with dna helicase activity. | genetic studies of adeno-associated virus (aav) indicate that two aav genes are required for viral dna replication: the palindromic terminal repeat, which is the origin for dna replication, and the rep gene, which codes for a family of at least four viral nonstructural proteins. to determine the biochemical function of the rep proteins, we have purified the aav rep68 protein to apparent homogeneity. we find that it contains a site-specific and strand-specific endonuclease activity that specifica ... | 1990 | 2159383 |
| the adeno-associated virus rep gene suppresses herpes simplex virus-induced dna amplification. | herpes simplex virus (hsv) induces within the host cell genome dna amplification which can be suppressed by coinfection with adeno-associated virus (aav). to characterize the aav functions mediating this effect, cloned aav type 2 wild-type or mutant genomes were transfected into simian virus 40 (sv40)-transformed hamster cells together with the six hsv replication genes (encoding ul5, ul8, major dna-binding protein, dna polymerase, ul42, and ul52) which together are necessary and sufficient for ... | 1990 | 2159559 |
| inhibition of n-methyl-n'-nitro-n-nitrosoguanidine-induced methotrexate and adriamycin resistance in cho cells by adeno-associated virus type 2. | we studied the effects of helper-dependent parvovirus aav [adeno-associated virus] type 2 on carcinogen-inducible resistance to methotrexate (mtx) and adriamycin (adr) in chinese hamster ovary cells. both types of drug resistance were monitored by determination of the number of drug-resistant colonies normalized for the respective value of plating efficiency under non-selective conditions. treatment of cells with n-methyl-n'-nitro-n-nitrosoguanidine (mnng) drastically enhanced the frequency of r ... | 1990 | 2161803 |
| construction and replication of an adeno-associated virus expression vector that contains human beta-globin cdna. | with the goal of using adeno-associated viruses (aav) as the gene-transfer vector for gene therapy of hemoglobinopathies, human beta-globin cdna was ligated downstream from the p40 promoter of the aav type-2 (aav2) genome. to circumvent difficulties of cloning dna containing palindromic sequences, two of which exist in the termini of aav genome, a step-wise approach handling one palindrome at a time was devised to construct the chimeric expression vector. electroporation of the construct into hu ... | 1990 | 2165023 |

| infection with adeno-associated virus type 5 inhibits mutagenicity of herpes simplex virus type 1 or 4-nitroquinoline-1-oxide. | infection with adeno-associated virus type 5 (aav-5) reduced the number of mutants arising in the hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase locus of human rd 176 cells after infection with herpes simplex virus type 1 (hsv-1; partially inactivated) or 4-nitroquinoline-1-oxide (4-nqo). the mutation frequency was reduced by aav-5 infection from 11.4 to 1.8 after mutation with hsv-1 and from 3.2 to 2.5 when mutation was induced by 4-nqo. this was analyzed by determination of the number of cells resista ... | 1990 | 2166909 |
| induction of selective dna amplification and morphological cell transformation in syrian hamster embryo cells. | dna amplification is a frequently observed event in continuous cell lines and in tumors. it is likely that a common mechanism underlies the amplification of specific dna sequences which confer drug resistance and genes which give a growth advantage to the tumor. to find a correlation between the induction of dna amplification by chemicals and morphological cell transformation we treated syrian hamster embryo (she) cells with diverse antineoplastic agents of different classes. analysis of these a ... | 1990 | 2170834 |
| adeno-associated virus dna replication is induced by genes that are essential for hsv-1 dna synthesis. | adeno-associated virus (aav) dna replication is not detectable unless cells are coinfected with a helper adenovirus (ad) or herpesvirus or unless aav infection is carried out in certain established cell lines that have been treated with various metabolic inhibitors or uv irradiation. in helper-dependent infections, it has been shown that aav dna synthesis depends on one or more early ad genes, whereas little is known concerning any herpesvirus gene that promotes aav dna synthesis. in this study ... | 1990 | 2173256 |
| evidence for covalent attachment of the adeno-associated virus (aav) rep protein to the ends of the aav genome. | we have demonstrated that when the covalently joined ends of linear adeno-associated virus (aav) dna are resolved in vitro, the virus-encoded rep protein becomes covalently attached to the 5' ends of the dna. the covalent bond is between a tyrosine residue of the aav rep protein and a 5' phosphate of a thymidine residue in the aav genome. only the rep protein encoded by the aav p5 promoter, rep68, was capable of becoming covalently attached to the ends of the aav genome; the rep proteins encoded ... | 1990 | 2173787 |
| parvovirus replication. | the members of the family parvoviridae are among the smallest of the dna viruses, with a linear single-stranded genome of about 5 kilobases. currently the family is divided into three genera, two of which contain viruses of vertebrates and a third containing insect viruses. this review concentrates on the vertebrate viruses, with emphasis on recent advances in our insights into the molecular biology of viral replication. traditionally the vertebrate viruses have been distinguished by the presenc ... | 1990 | 2215424 |
| adeno-associated virus rep protein synthesis during productive infection. | adeno-associated virus (aav) rep proteins mediate viral dna replication and can regulate expression from aav genes. we studied the kinetics of synthesis of the four rep proteins, rep78, rep68, rep52, and rep40, during infection of human 293 or kb cells with aav and helper adenovirus by in vivo labeling with [35s]methionine, immunoprecipitation, and immunoblotting analyses. rep78 and rep52 were readily detected concomitantly with detection of viral monomer duplex dna replicating about 10 to 12 h ... | 1989 | 2536109 |
| replication of adeno-associated virus in cells irradiated with uv light at 254 nm. | irradiation of simian virus 40 (ori mutant)-transformed chinese hamster embryo cells (od4 line) with uv light induced a cellular capacity which supported a full cycle of helper-independent adeno-associated virus replication. monochromatic uv light at 254 nm was about 1,000-fold more effective than uv light at 313 nm, indicating that cellular nucleic acid is the primary chromophore in the uv-induced process leading to permissiveness for adeno-associated virus replication. the uv irradiation and t ... | 1989 | 2536816 |
| efficient synthesis of adeno-associated virus structural proteins requires both adenovirus dna binding protein and va i rna. | we have shown previously that replication of defective parvoviruses [adeno-associated viruses (aav)] requires several early adenovirus (ad) gene products [j. e. janik, m. m. huston, and j. a. rose (1981) proc. natl. acad. sci. usa 78, 1925-1929]. to examine their possible roles in the transcription and translation of aav mrna, 293-31 cells, a human embryonic kidney cell line that constitutively expresses the ad early region ia and ib gene products, were transfected with a pbr325 plasmid (plh1) t ... | 1989 | 2536986 |
| detection of latent avian adenovirus-associated virus proteins in chicken cells. | chicken kidney cells, derived from the eggs of white leghorn chickens that had serological evidence of prior exposure to both adenovirus and the adeno-associated virus (aav), produced aav antigenic proteins upon challenge with purified adenovirus. antigen was detected by indirect immunofluorescence using monoclonal antibody to aav. the number of fluorescent cells were few and did not increase during the course of adenovirus infection. similar results were obtained using cells prepared from speci ... | 1989 | 2539071 |
| interactions between the termini of adeno-associated virus dna. | the adeno-associated virus (aav) genome is a linear, single polynucleotide chain with inverted terminal repeats of 145 bases. in order to test whether the terminal repeats at opposite ends of the genome have to be able to completely base-pair during dna replication, we have created chimeric genomes in which an 11 base symmetrical sequence has been deleted from the terminal repeat at one end of the genome and replaced by a different 12 base symmetrical sequence. we have used these chimeric constr ... | 1989 | 2539485 |
| rescue and replication of the adeno-associated virus 2 genome in mortal and immortal human cells. | productive infection of the adeno-associated virus (aav) as well as rescue of the aav genome from a recombinant plasmid and its subsequent replication in established cell lines are dependent upon coinfection with adenovirus. a comparative study of aav infection and rescue/replication was carried out in mortal and immortal human cells. aav dna replication as well as assembly and release of the progeny virions were significantly delayed in normal diploid cells, which have a limited replicative pot ... | 1989 | 2542184 |
| identification of nuclear proteins that specifically interact with adeno-associated virus type 2 inverted terminal repeat hairpin dna. | a palindromic hairpin duplex containing the inverted terminal repeat sequence of adeno-associated virus type 2 (aav) dna was used as a substrate in gel retardation assays to detect putative proteins that specifically interact with the aav hairpin dna structures. nuclear proteins were detected in extracts prepared from human kb cells coinfected with aav and adenovirus type 2 that interacted with the hairpin duplex but not in nuclear extracts prepared from uninfected, aav-infected, or adenovirus t ... | 1989 | 2542611 |
| factors that bind to adeno-associated virus terminal repeats. | we have identified and characterized a dna-protein complex that forms with the adeno-associated virus (aav) terminal repeats. the complex formed only if the terminal palindrome was in the covalently closed or hairpin configuration; little if any binding was detected with the open duplex form of the terminal repeat. this fact suggested that both secondary structure and primary sequence are essential elements of recognition. dnase i protection studies indicated that virtually all of the a-a' palin ... | 1989 | 2542617 |
| organization of adeno-associated virus dna in latently infected detroit 6 cells. | the dna of a human dependovirus, adeno-associated virus (aav), integrates into the cellular genome under conditions nonpermissive for viral dna replication. the aav dna can be rescued from the cellular genome by superinfection with a helper virus, e.g., adenovirus. to characterize the organization of the proviral dna in greater detail, we isolated three proviral subfragments from a latently infected human cell line. our findings, based on sequence analysis, restriction enzyme mapping, and genomi ... | 1989 | 2543124 |
| replication of a human parvovirus nonsense mutant in mammalian cells containing an inducible amber suppressor. | when recombinant plasmids containing the entire adeno-associated virus (aav) genome are transfected into permissive cells infected with a helper adenovirus, infectious aav particles are efficiently generated. these plasmids can be used to generate mutant aav genomes or recombinant aav vectors. packaging of mutant aav genomes has required complementation with a second aav plasmid in the transfection assay which may lead to generation of significant amounts of wild-type aav recombinants. one appro ... | 1989 | 2545030 |
| adeno-associated virus p5 promoter contains an adenovirus e1a-inducible element and a binding site for the major late transcription factor. | activity of the adeno-associated virus p5 transcriptional control region was found to be induced by adenovirus e1a gene products. a pair of adjacent sequence elements was found to mediate both basal and e1a-induced p5 activity. the first element is a binding site for the major late transcription factor (mltf), a factor first identified on the basis of its binding to a specific sequence within the adenovirus major late promoter. the second element is a tandemly repeated 10-base-pair sequence whos ... | 1989 | 2545917 |
| dna amplification in genetic toxicology. | chemical compounds can cause amplification of specific dna sequences. dna amplification may result in an enhanced production of gene products which help cells to cope with the chemicals. this may lead to a resistance of the cells toward the agent. additionally, initiation of transformation or progression of transformed cells to tumorigenicity may also involve dna amplification. therefore, it is of interest to study the potential of chemicals to induce dna amplification. this report focuses on th ... | 1989 | 2546072 |
| helper-free stocks of recombinant adeno-associated viruses: normal integration does not require viral gene expression. | a method is described for the production of recombinant adeno-associated virus (aav) stocks that contain no detectable wild-type helper aav. the recombinant viruses contained only the terminal 191 nucleotides of the aav chromosome bracketing a nonviral marker gene. trans-acting aav functions were provided by a helper dna in which the terminal 191 nucleotides of the aav chromosome were substituted with adenovirus terminal sequences. although the helper dna did not appear to replicate, it expresse ... | 1989 | 2547998 |
| the adeno-associated virus rep78 gene inhibits cellular transformation induced by bovine papillomavirus. | adeno-associated virus type 2 (aav) is a helper dependent parvovirus which can inhibit the oncogenic and transforming potential of its helper viruses: adenoviruses (ad) and herpesviruses. here we have assayed aav's ability to inhibit cellular transformation induced by bovine papillomavirus type 1 (bpv-1), a member of another family of dna viruses. aav was able to markedly inhibit bpv-1-induced transformation of contact-inhibited murine fibroblasts either by infection with virus particles or by d ... | 1989 | 2549714 |
| amplification of bovine papillomavirus dna by n-methyl-n'-nitro-n-nitrosoguanidine, ultraviolet irradiation, or infection with herpes simplex virus. | treatment with n-methyl-n'-nitro-n-nitrosoguanidine (mnng) or irradiation with ultraviolet light (uv254 nm) induces amplification of integrated as well as episomal sequences of bovine papillomavirus (bpv) type 1 dna in bpv-1-transformed mouse c127 cells (i.e., id13 cells). this is shown by filter in situ hybridization and southern blot analysis of cellular dna. similarly, infection of id13 cells with herpes simplex virus (hsv) type 1 which has been shown to be mutagenic for host cell dna leads t ... | 1989 | 2549724 |
| expression from the adeno-associated virus p5 and p19 promoters is negatively regulated in trans by the rep protein. | the leftward two promoters of the adeno-associated virus (aav) 2 genome were fused to reporter genes, and the constructs were used to transfect hela cells. the promoters functioned constitutively but were repressed in trans by the aav rep gene product(s). the repression was relieved by adenovirus infection. evidence which indicated an enhancer function for the inverted terminal repeat of the aav-2 genome was also obtained. | 1989 | 2550677 |
| construction of a recombinant human parvovirus b19: adeno-associated virus 2 (aav) dna inverted terminal repeats are functional in an aav-b19 hybrid virus. | to facilitate genetic analysis of the human pathogenic parvovirus b19, we constructed a hybrid b19 viral genome in which the defective b19 inverted terminal repeats were replaced with the full-length inverted terminal repeats from a nonpathogenic human parvovirus, the adeno-associated virus 2 (aav). the hybrid aav-b19 genome was rescued from a recombinant plasmid and then the dna was replicated upon transfection into adenovirus 2-infected human kb cells in the presence of aav genes coding for pr ... | 1989 | 2554300 |
| mutagenesis of an aug codon in the adeno-associated virus rep gene: effects on viral dna replication. | the adeno-associated virus (aav) rep gene is transcribed from two promoters, p5 and p19, which code for two over-lapping families of rep proteins. the proteins coded by p5 transcripts contain an amino-terminal domain not present in the proteins coded by p19 transcripts. the rep gene is required for aav dna replication and also mediates pleiotropic effects in positive and negative regulation of expression of genes driven by either aav or heterologous promoters. all three functions require rep pro ... | 1989 | 2554565 |
| gene expression in adeno-associated virus vectors: the effects of chimeric mrna structure, helper virus, and adenovirus va1 rna. | we used a recombinant plasmid containing an adeno-associated virus (aav) genome to construct several vectors which express the gene for chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (cat). we transfected four different aav-cat vectors into human 293 (adenovirus-transformed) cells and analyzed cat activity. we show that, for vectors using the aav p40 and p19 promoter, the chimeric aav-cat transcripts began from the correct 5' position but the basal level of cat expression depended in part on the structure of ... | 1987 | 2820138 |
| replication of the adeno-associated virus dna termini in vitro. | the validity of the model proposed by cavalier-smith for the replication of linear, single-stranded dna molecules was tested by using subgenomic dna termini isolated from adeno-associated virus (aav), a defective parvovirus. in purified dna replication systems, the terminal hairpin structure of aav dna with a 3'-oh end was shown to prime the synthesis of the daughter dna strand, which was covalently linked to the parental strand. this resulted in the synthesis of a duplex dna structure with a te ... | 1987 | 2822604 |
| characterization of adeno-associated virus rep proteins in human cells by antibodies raised against rep expressed in escherichia coli. | the rep gene of the defective human parvovirus, adeno-associated virus, (aav) mediates several trans-acting functions important to virus replication, transcription, and gene expression. at least four overlapping polypeptides are expressed from the rep gene. we have constructed a prokaryotic vector which expressed in escherichia coli a region of aav comprising 93% of the largest aav rep protein. the protein expressed in e. coli, rep 78.93, was used to raise specific antibodies in rabbits. these a ... | 1987 | 2823460 |
| adenovirus e1b 55-mr polypeptide facilitates timely cytoplasmic accumulation of adeno-associated virus mrnas. | adenovirus provides helper functions that facilitate replication of adeno-associated virus (aav). both the adenovirus e1b 55-mr and e4 34-mr polypeptides are required for efficient and timely accumulation of aav mrna, proteins, and dna. the e1b 55-mr polypeptide is also required for rescue of the integrated aav genome in detroit 6-d5 cells in a normal time frame. all of these effects probably result from a single, primary delay in aav mrna accumulation. the aav helper function provided by the e1 ... | 1988 | 2824848 |
| regulation of adeno-associated virus gene expression in 293 cells: control of mrna abundance and translation. | we studied the effects of the adeno-associated virus (aav) rep gene on the control of gene expression from the aav p40 promoter in 293 cells in the absence of an adenovirus coinfection. aav vectors containing the chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (cat) gene were used to measure the levels of cat expression and steady-state mrna from p40. when the rep gene was present in cis or in trans, cat expression from p40 was decreased 3- to 10-fold, but there was a 2- to 4-fold increase in the level of p40 ... | 1988 | 2824856 |
| gene transfer into hematopoietic progenitor cells mediated by an adeno-associated virus vector. | we describe here the transduction of murine hematopoietic progenitor cells with the dominant selectable neomycin drug-resistance (neo) gene using a recombinant adeno-associated virus (aav) vector. successful transformation of progenitor cells to drug resistance was determined to be approximately 1.5% by colony formation in the presence of geneticin sulfate (g-418). the value of aav as an alternative to the retrovirus vector systems is discussed. | 1988 | 2829430 |
