Abstract
Provided are methods and compositions for generating a deletion library, and methods and compositions for generating and identifying a defective interfering particle (DIP). Also provided are transposon cassettes. A subject method can include: inserting a transposon cassette comprising a target sequence for a sequence specific DNA endonuclease into a population of circular target DNAs to generate a population of transposon-inserted circular target DNAs; contacting the population of transposon-inserted circular target DNAs with the sequence specific DNA endonuclease to generate a population of cleaved linear target DNAs; contacting the population of cleaved linear target DNAs with one or more exonucleases to generate a population of deletion DNAs; and circularizing the deletion DNAs to generate a library of circularized deletion DNAs. The population of circular target DNAs can include viral genomic DNA. Also provided are human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) deletion mutants, e.g., interfering, conditionally replicating, HIV deletion mutants, and related constructs.
