Adenovirus library and methods

Abstract

Described herein is a method that generally includes infecting a host cell with a rescue adenovirus, wherein the rescue adenovirus genome comprises a loxP site and encodes at least one marker, and wherein the host cell comprises a library of polynucleotides that complement the adenovirus genome marker and encode a detectable polypeptide; incubating the infected host cell under conditions effective to permit recombination between the adenovirus genome and one or more of the library polynucleotides and the production of recombinant adenovirus particles comprising at least on detectable polypeptide; and detecting the at least one detectable polypeptide. Also described are adenovirus libraries constructed using such a method.
