Abstract
The subject matters of this invention are the hormone-dependent forms of Rep 78 and Rep 68 proteins of the Adeno-associated virus (AAV), obtained by the fusion of their specific mutants with the hormone binding domain (HBD) of steroid hormone receptors, and the DNA sequences coding for them. The invention also refers to a method for the hormonal regulation of the activity of the fusion products Rep78/68-HBD, inserted into eucaryotic cells utilizing viral or non-viral systems, in order to direct the stable integration of DNA sequences in specific regions of the host human genome for therapeutic purposes. The fusion products Rep78/68-HBD are also utilized to generate viral hybrid vectors (i.e. adenovirus vectors AAV) and for generating recombinant vectors AAV.
