Abstract

Adeno-associated virus (AAV) has become a versatile vector platform. In recent years, powerful ­techniques for the generation of tropism-modified vectors (rAAV-targeting vectors) and for investigation of virus–cell interaction were developed. The following chapter describes strategies for insertion of peptide ligands into the viral capsid and the subsequent characterization of capsid mutants, for producing mosaic capsids and for labeling the viral capsid chemically or genetically.
