Adeno-Associated Virus(AAV) Gene Therapy Landscape

Adeno-Associated Virus(AAV) Gene Therapy Landscape Adeno-associated viruses (AAV) are virus particles composed of single-stranded DNA surrounded by a protein shell. Despite their simple structure, recombinant AAVs (rAAV) can perform the important role of delivering nucleic acids into cells during gene therapy. Due to the high demand for potentially curative treatments in areas of huge unmet […]

Viral vector-based vaccines: Adenovirus (AdV) vector-based vaccines

COVID-19 vaccine development protocol: PSV Based Neutralization Assay Adenovirus (AdV) vector-based vaccines Adenovirus (AdV) is a member of the family Adenoviridae, whose name derives from their initial isolation from human adenoids in 1953 [42]. It is a medium sized (90-100nm) and non-enveloped virus with an icosahedral nucleocapsid containing a 36kb double stranded DNA genome (Fig. […]

What is Adenovirus vector?

Adenovirus protocol Download Adenovirus (AdV) is a member of the family Adenoviridae, whose name derives from their initial isolation from human adenoids in 1953 [1]. It is a medium-sized (90-100nm) and non-enveloped virus with an icosahedral nucleocapsid containing a double-stranded DNA genome. With a broad range of vertebrate hosts, 100 serotypes have been isolated, and […]

Adenovirus – Production/Packaging Protocol, Guidelines

Adenovirus protocol Download Adenovirus Production Protocol–Genemedi 1. Adenovirus plasmid construction The gene of interest is cloned into one of the ITR/MCS-containing adenovirus vectors to generate pAd -GOI. The purity and RNA contaminants of viral plasmid should be taken into consideration. 2. Adenovirus packaging The recombinant adenovirus viral plasmid pAd-GOI is co-transfected into the 293A with […]

Adenovirus Vector Transduction -Adenovirus vector Gene Delivery in vitro and in vivo

Adenovirus protocol Download Adenovirus Infection Protocol in vitro and in vivo a. Adenovirus Infection Protocol–Genemedi For the reason that MOI varies in different cell lines, preliminary experiment is necessary to ensure a proper MOI of target cells before conducting formal experiments.Note: MOI, multiplicity of infection, is the number of viral particles to infect one cell. […]

Life Cycle of Adenovirus-From Infection To Regeneration

Adenovirus protocol Download For most serotypes, adenovirus infection is mediated by the high-affinity binding of the fiber-knob region to a receptor of target cell, named as the coxsackie-Ad receptor (CAR) [17]. Upon attachment, interaction between the penton-base Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) and cellular αv integrins, which can stimulate actin polymerization, leads to internalization of the virus into […]

Adenovirus Genome Structure (ITR, E1, E2A¡­¡­) and adenovirus assembly

Adenovirus protocol Download Adenovirus is a non-enveloped, 90-100 nm diameter virus presenting icosahedral symmetry (Figure1A). Human adenovirus, containing a linear, double-stranded DNA genome, which is approximately 36kb, is wrapped in a histone-like protein and has two inverted terminal repeats (ITRs) of 50-200 bp, which act as origins of replication, accompanied by a complex series of […]
