Figure 1. Generation and Characterization of AAV2. hCHM.

Figure 1

I). Schematic of the AAV proviral plasmid carrying human CHM. under the control of the cytomegalovirus enhancer chicken beta actin (eCBA) promoter. ITR: Inverted terminal repeats; Ori: Replication origin; KanR: Kanamycin resistance gene. II) i) Immunoblot and ii) fluorescent analysis reveals REP-1 protein in CHO cells transfected with pAAV2.hCHM. Lane A: Transfected cell (25 ug protein), B: Control (untransfected) cells, C- protein marker. Immunocytochemical analysis revealed the localization of REP-1 to the cytosolic region (II-ii-B; Green). No REP1 is observed in control cells (II-ii-A). Nuclei are stained with DAPI and appear blue. Scale bar is 50 uM. III) Immunoblot analysis of CHO cells infected with 1E3-2E5 viral genomes (vg) of AAV2. hCHM show an increase in REP-1 protein (indicated by arrow) proportional to the titer. Positive (+ve) control: pAAV2. hCHM-transfected CHO cell lysate.
