Abstract
Coinfection of adeno-associated virus (AAV) with human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) strain Towne in human embryonic fibroblasts resulted in accumulation of AAV capsid antigen and production of infectious AAV with a lag of 24 hr compared to AAV replication in AAV-adenovirus coinfections. In contrast to previous observation, these findings demonstrated that HCMV is a competent helper virus for the complete replication of AAV. In addition, HCMV and AAV were synergistic in their cytopathic effects on cells, suggesting the possibility that AAV may play a role in the pathogenicity of HCMV infections.Entities:
