Adeno-associated virus (AAV) is a nonpathogenic parvovirus that efficiently replicates in the presence of adenovirus (Ad). Exogenous expression of the AAV replication proteins induces caspase-dependent apoptosis, but determining if AAV infection causes apoptosis during viral infection is complicated by Ad-mediated programmed cell death. To eliminate Ad-induced cytolysis, we used an E3 adenoviral death protein (ADP) mutant, pm534.

Adeno-associated virus (AAV) is a human parvovirus that normally requires a helper virus such as adenovirus (Ad) for replication. The four replication proteins (Rep78, 68, 52 and 40) encoded by AAV are pleiotropic effectors of virus integration, replication, transcription and virion assembly. Using Rep68 column chromatography and mass spectrometry, we have identified the nucleolar, B23/Nucleophosmin (NPM) protein as an Rep-interacting partner.

Adeno-associated virus (AAV) is a nonpathogenic parvovirus that requires adenovirus (Ad) or another helper virus for a fully permissive infection. AAV-mediated inhibition of Ad is well documented, yet many details of this interaction remain unclear. In this study, we observed a maximum 50-fold decrease in infectious virus production and a 10- to 40-fold reduction in Ad DNA synthesis during coinfections with AAV.
