Project description:We have previously developed a modified iteration of a viral chromosome conformation capture (V3C-seq) assay to show that the autonomous parvovirus Minute Virus of Mice (MVM) localizes spatially with cellular sites of DNA damage to establish viral replication centers. Similar V3C-seq assays to map AAV genome localization show that both replicating and non-replicating AAV2 genomes in the absence of helper virus colocalize with cellular sites of DNA damage. The AAV non-structural protein Rep 68/78, when ectopically expressed in the absence of viral infection or during AAV2 infection in the absence of helper proteins also localizes to cellular sites of DNA damage. Strikingly however, recombinant AAV gene therapy vector genomes derived from AAV do not colocalize with AAV and Rep at cellular DDR sites.

Project description:Recombinant adeno-associated viruses (rAAVs) are the predominant gene therapy vector. Several rAAV vectored therapies have achieved regulatory approval, but production of sufficient rAAV quantities remains difficult. The AAV Rep proteins, which are essential for genome replication and packaging, represent a promising engineering target for improvement of rAAV production but remain underexplored. To gain a comprehensive understanding of the Rep proteins and their mutational landscape, we assayed the effects of all 39,297 possible single codon mutations to the AAV2 rep gene on AAV2 production. Most beneficial variants are not observed in nature, indicating that improved production may require synthetic mutations. Additionally, the effects of AAV2 rep mutations were largely consistent across capsid serotypes, suggesting that production benefits are capsid independent. Our results provide a detailed sequence-to-function map that enhances our understanding of Rep protein function and lays the groundwork for Rep engineering and enhancement of large scale gene therapy production.

Project description:The human Adeno-Associated Virus serotype 2 (WT AAV2) is a common non-pathological virus and its recombinant form (rAAV) is widely used as gene therapy vector. However, it has been shown that WT AAV2 and recombinant AAV display significantly different characteristics, especially regarding infection rate, with a near perfect infectivity and better encapsidation rate of WT AAV2. Even though rAAVs are routinely produced in the Baculovirus/Sf9 cell system, WT AAV2 has never been produced in this context. To understand the infectivity and encapsidation rate differences between WT AAV2 and rAAV, we tried to produce WT AAV2 in baculovirus/Sf9 cells system hypothesizing that the WT AAV2 may be considered as a normal recombinant AAV transgene. Through our attempts to produce WT AAV2 in Baculovirus/Sf9, we found that WT AAV2 p5 promoter, which controls the expression of large Rep proteins in mammalian cells, was active in this system. p5 promoter activity in the baculovirus/Sf9 cell system led to the expression of Rep78 that finally excises WT AAV2 genome from the baculovirus genome during the earliest phase of baculovirus stock production. The p5 promoter expression kinetics and the specific strand RNA-Seq analysis of the WT AAV2, rAAV Rep2/Cap2 cassettes in the baculovirus context was performed. We demonstrate that the WT AAV2 native promoters, p5, p19 and p40 are all active and lead to the expression of different proteins and peptides. In addition, this study demonstrates that the baculovirus brings at least some of the helper functions needed in the AAV replication/life cycle.

Project description:For patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia and limited revascularization options, alternate means for therapeutic angiogenesis and limb salvage are needed. E-selectin is a cell adhesion molecule that is critical for inflammation and neovascularization in areas of wound healing and ischemia. Here, we tested the efficacy of modifying ischemic limb tissue by intramuscular administration of E-selectin/AAV2/2 (adeno-associated virus serotype 2/2) to modulate angiogenic and inflammatory responses in a murine hindlimb gangrene model. Limb appearance, reperfusion, and functional recovery were assessed for 3 weeks after induction of ischemia. Mice receiving E-selectin/AAV2/2 gene therapy had reduced gangrene severity, increased limb and footpad perfusion, enhanced recruitment of endothelial progenitor cells, and improved performance on treadmill testing compared to control group. Histologically, E-selectin/AAV2/2 gene therapy was associated with increased vascularity and preserved myofiber integrity. E-selectin/AAV2/2 gene therapy also upregulated a panel of pro-angiogenic genes yet downregulated another group of genes associated with the inflammatory response. This novel gene therapy did not induce adverse effects on coagulability, or hematologic, hepatic, and renal function. Our findings highlight the potential of E-selectin/AAV2/2 gene therapy for improving limb perfusion and function in patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia.

Project description:We generated adeno-associated Cre viral vectors with improved astrocyte-specific expression by including a cassette of miRNA targeting sequences (4x6T) to decrease off-target expression. We delivered these viruses in Ribotag mice using the PHP.eB serotype, either intracortically or systemically. We compared these samples with mice that received intracortical AAV2/5::GfaABC1D-Cre and transgenic Aldh1l1-CreERT2/Ribotag mice. We sequenced whole-tissue RNA as well as ribosomally-loaded astrocyte-enriched mRNA to assess cell-type specificity of viruses as well as virus-related transcriptomic changes.

Project description:To isolate photoreceptor precursors fit for transplantation, we adapted a 3D differentiation protocol that generates neuroretina from mouse ES cells. We used an adeno-associated viral vector (pseudotype2/9)carrying a GFP reporter under the control of a Rhodopsin promoter (AAV2/9.Rhop.GFP)to select rod precursors. AAV2/9.Rhop.GFP+ rods were sorted at days 26 and 34 and post natal day P12.

Project description:[15:18] Toole, Estee Adeno-Associated Viruses (AAVs) comprise an area of rapidly growing interest due to their ability to act as a gene delivery vehicle in novel gene therapy strategies and vaccine development. Peptide mapping is a common technique in the biopharmaceutical industry to confirm the correct sequence, product purity, PTMs, and stability. However, conventional peptide mapping is time-consuming and has proven difficult to reproduce with viral capsids because of their high structural stability and the suboptimal localization of trypsin cleavage sites in the AAV protein sequences. In this study, we present an optimized workflow that provides thorough characterization within one day. This workflow is also highly reproducible due to its simplicity having very few steps, and easy to perform proteolytic digestion utilizing thermally-stable pepsin, active at 70°C in acidic conditions. The acidic conditions of the peptic digestions drive viral capsid denaturation and improve cleavage site accessibility. We characterized the efficiency and ease of digestion through peptide mapping of the AAV2 viral capsid protein. Using nanoflow liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry, we achieved 100% sequence coverage of the low abundance VP1 capsid protein with a digestion process taking only 10 minutes to prepare and 30 minutes to complete the digestion.
