AAV GENE THERAPY SEQUENCING

Adeno-associated virus (AAV) gene therapy sequencing enables you to verify the quality and integrity of packaged AAV vectors, including inverted terminal repeat (ITR) regions, measure AAV expression after infection, monitor host response, and much more.

Whether you need to sequence a packaged AAV product, AAV plasmid, or interested in post-infection solutions, we offer custom, in-depth AAV gene therapy sequencing for your complex AAV applications. Our solutions combine next generation sequencing (NGS) using the latest technologies, such as PacBio® long-read (>10kb) or Illumina® short-read sequencing, with our proprietary QC process to provide you with reliable, accurate results and streamline your AAV gene therapy research.

 

What is AAV Gene Therapy?

Adeno-associated viruses (AAV) are the optimal vehicle for, and leading viral vector used in in vivo gene therapy clinical trials due to their high efficiency and enhanced safety in humans.

 

NGS SOLUTIONS FOR AAV GENE THERAPY

Confirm Plasmid Sequences

Utilize Azenta's short-read amplicon sequencing for highly-accurate confirmation of AAV plasmid inserts, or confirm full-length recombinant AAV (rAAV) vector integrity at the single-molecule level with long-read amplicon sequencing.

Validate Packaged Material

Sequence-confirm rAAV vectors and identify DNA contaminants in AAV library preparation by employing the power of Azenta's short- and long-read whole genome sequencing solutions.

Quantify AAV Expression

Employ Azenta's qPCR, targeted sequencing, or RNA sequencing solutions at the RUO and CLIA levels to measure AAV expression of the target gene after infection.

Monitor Host Response

Stratify and characterize host-immune response during and after infection with Azenta's suite of RNA sequencing solutions, or use novel approaches including single-cell sequencing and spatial genomics.
