Adeno-associated virus

freebase

help
Adeno-associated virus (AAV) is a small virus which infects humans and some other primate species. AAV is not currently known to cause disease and consequently the virus causes a very mild immune response. AAV can infect both dividing and non-dividing cells and may incorporate its genome into that of the host cell. These features make AAV a very attractive candidate for creating viral vectors for...

    Adeno-associated virus

    Adeno-associated virus (AAV) is a small virus which infects humans and some other primate species. AAV is not currently known to cause disease and consequently the virus causes a very mild immune response.

    Dependovirus

    For example, a species of cattle infected with a Bovine adeno-associated virus or a Canine adeno-associated virus needs a Bovine adenovirus or Bovine herpesvirus, or some other helper virus specific to cattle, to provide the missing amino acid sequences for replication and capsid formation in the Adeno-associated virus.

    Gene therapy

    Retroviruses have limited natural host cell ranges, and although adenovirus and adeno-associated virus are able to infect a relatively broader range of cells efficiently, some cell types are refractory to infection by these viruses as well.

    Provirus

    A provirus not only refers to a retrovirus but is also used to describe other viruses that can integrate into the host chromosomes, another example being adeno-associated virus.
