AAV transduction vectors
First Claim
1. A hybrid gene vector comprising foreign DNA ligated into an AAV genome in place of or in addition to the cap, lip or rep coding sequence thereof or in place of or in addition to an AAV DNA sequence excluding the first and last 145 base pairs, said vector being capable of transducing data foreign DNA into a mammalian cell in the presence of a promoter other than an AAV transcription promoter, and said AAV genome being cloned in a prokaryotic vector plasmid or bacteriophage vector capable of growth in prokaryotic cells or yeast plasmid vector capable of growth in fungal cells and isolating a recombinant AAV hybrid gene vector by transfection of the ligated vector into a mammalian cell, said AAV genome being the entire AAV viral DNA or a deletion mutant thereof, capable of replication upon infection of said mammalian cell when complemented in trans by an AAV gene.
