    • found: Work cat: White, A.F. Targeted gene transfer by genetic capsid modification of recombinant adeno associated virus 2, 2005:p. 1 (The development of safe and efficient gene transfer vectors is essential to achieving long-term success for gene therapy. One of the most promising viral vectors is based on adeno-associated virus (AAV), a member of the parvovirus family. AAV is also known as dependovirus because it requires the presence of a helper virus to complete its replicative life cycle)
    • found: MeSH browser, Feb. 15, 2017(Dependovirus -- A genus of the family Parvoviridae, subfamily Parvovirinae, which are dependent on a coinfection with helper adenoviruses or herpesviruses for their efficient replication. The type species is Adeno-associated virus 2) [UF] (Adeno-associated viruses)
    • found: Carter, J.B. Virology : principles and applications, ©2007:p. 138 (The subfamily Parvovirinae includes the genus Dependovirus, the members of which are defective, normally replicating only when the cell is co-infected with a helper virus. Other parvoviruses that do not require helper viruses are known as autonomous parvoviruses)

    • found: Dorland's illustrated medical dictionary, 2007(Dependovirus -- adeno-associated viruses; a genus of viruses of the subfamily Parvovirinae (family Parvoviridae) that require coinfection with an adenovirus or herpesvirus to provide helper functions for replication. If no helper virus is present, the genome can be integrated into the host cell DNA, resulting in latent infection. Asymptomatic infection is common in humans and in many animal species)
