AAV, adeno-associated virus; AAV2-RSS, AAV2 reference standard stock; CBB, Coomassie Brilliant Blue; GFP, green fluorescent protein; KC, virus analyzed at King's College London School of Medicine; LacZ, galactosidase; MSSM, virus analyzed at Mount Sinai School of Medicine; N/A, not applicable; SDS–PAGE, sodium dodecyl sulfate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis; SERCA, sarco/endoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase; stdv, standard deviation.

Note: Titers are expressed as viral particles per microliter. Rows in boldface represent the average of “Percent reference value” of all virus preparations of a particular type of virus, that is, AAV2-RSS, all wild-type AAVs, all recombinant AAVs prepared in-house, or all the virus preparations.

a

Titer determined by ELISA.
