ADENO-ASSOCIATED VIRUS VIRIONS AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF
ADENO-ASSOCIATED VIRUS VIRIONS AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF Researchers at UC Berkeley And. UCSF have developed a recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) virion, comprising a variant AAV capsid protein, which can exhibit greater infectivity of a macrophage and has potential therapeutic applications. Adeno-associated virus (AAV) belongs to the Parvoviridae...

A Novel System for Producing Infectious Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) Virions and Development of a Novel Reporter System for Studying HCV Entry
HCV has infected an estimated 3% of the world population in whom viral infection persists for more than two third of the cases, often resulting in life-threatening complications. The standard of care (pegylated interferon alpha-2 plus ribavirin) is efficient in only 50% of treated patients, costly and has numerous side effects. In addition, viral resistance...
