The integration sites of viral vectors used in human gene therapy can have important consequences for safety and efficacy. However, an extensive evaluation of adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector integration sites has not been completed, despite the ongoing use of AAV vectors in clinical trials. Here we have used a shuttle vector system to isolate and analyze 977 unique AAV vector-chromosome integration junctions from normal human fibroblasts and describe their genomic distribution. We found a si ...[more]
