Abstract

A hybrid adeno-associated virus (AAV)/simian virus 40 (SV40) genome is described. In this construct SV40 regulatory sequences, including the early promoter/enhancers and origin of DNA replication, were substituted for the AAV p5 promoter, which normally controls expression of the AAV rep gene. The hybrid genome was phenotypically indistinguishable from wild-type AAV in human cells in the presence or absence of helper virus. Upon transfection into cos-7 cells, which constitutively produced the SV40 tumor antigen, the genome replicated as a plasmid when the SV40 origin was used, although with a low efficiency compared with that of a non-AAV/SV40 replicon. The low level of replication was due to an inhibitory effect of an AAV rep gene product and was specific for replicons containing AAV sequences. Target AAV sequences required for inhibition by rep appeared to reside in the terminal repetitions since deletion of these sequences allowed efficient replication in the presence of the rep gene. The possible role for negative autoregulation of AAV DNA replication in latent infection and helper-dependent replication by AAV is discussed.
