RESUMO

We previously reported that a 350-bp region of the adeno-associated virus (AAV) type 2 rep gene contains a cis-acting element responsible for the Rep-dependent replication of a transiently transfected rep-cap plasmid. In this study, we further report that replicated rep-cap sequences can be packaged into AAV capsids in the absence of the inverted terminal repeats.
