Adeno-Associated Virus Vector Mobilization, Risk Versus Reality.

ABSTRACT: Recombinant adeno-associated viral (rAAV) vector mobilization is a largely theoretical process in which intact AAV vectors spread or "mobilize" from transduced cells and infect additional cells within, or external of, the initial host. This process can be helper virus-independent (vector alone) or helper virus-dependent (de novo rAAV production facilitated by superinfection of both wild-type AAV [wtAAV] and Adenovirus 5 [Ad] helper virus). Herein, rAAV production and mobilization with and without wtAAV were analyzed following plasmid transfection or viral transduction utilizing well-established in vitro conditions and analytical measurements. During in vitro production, wtAAV produced the highest titer with rAAV-luc (4.1 kb), rAAV-IDUA (3.7 kb), and rAAV-Nano-dysferlin
