Abstract
The present invention is directed to recombinantly-modified adeno-associated virus (rAAV) having improved packaging efficiency, pharmaceutical compositions comprising such rAAV, and methods for their production and use. The present invention is particularly directed to recombinantly-modified adeno-associated virus (rAAV) that have been further modified to comprise Cis-Elements, including replication origins, promoters and enhancers, that are capable of regulating the replication of an rAAV genome and that improve rAAV replication. Preferably, such Cis-Elements are provided within domains of the rAAV that precede and/or follow the 5' and/or 3′ inverted terminal repeated sequences (ITR) of an rAAV. The invention particularly concerns the presence and the use of polynucleotide Cis-Elements that comprise actual or potential G-Quadruplex Sequences, polynucleotide Cis-Elements that comprise DNA sequences from wild-type AAV (wt AAV) and polynucleotide Cis-Elements that comprise DNA sequences from other viral genomes or from the human genome.
