A small, single-stranded DNA virus in the family of parvoviruses, often used in experimental attempts to develop gene therapies. Not to be confused with adenoviruses, which are a family of larger, double-stranded DNA viruses. Both adenoviruses and AAVs have been used as vectors in experimental gene therapy; only adenoviruses are used in vaccine development.

... need to be able to deliver these antibodies in the longterm, for very long term. I think AAV vector is ideal in many respects for achieving this. The AAV vector system, the only protein expressed from AAV comes from the transgene that you put into it. As long as that transgene ...

... just going to show a few slides. We've focused on 00:14:30 AAV (adenoassociated virus) as a carrier for antibody genes because AAV is nonpathogenic in humans, it's actually nonintegrating as a vector. It has excellent expression, it grows ...
