DNA analysis of transduced adenoviral vector DNA in genomic liver DNA.
C57Bl/6 mice were injected with 2 × 109 transducing particles of either AdFTC/hFIX or fgAdhFIX. At both 5 days and 1 year after injection, genomic liver DNA was isolated and digested with HindIII, and a Southern blot was performed (n = 2 per group). Blots were hybridized with an α-32]dCTP–labeled cDNA hFIX probe, and the copy was determined by comparing the signal intensity of the resulting band with a standard curve that was obtained by digesting known amounts of the plasmid pBSh7hF9mgbpA containing the identical expression cassette withHindIII.19
