The use of recombinant adeno-associated virus (AAV) virions for delivery of DNA molecules to muscle cells and tissue is disclosed. The invention allows for the direct, in vivo injection of recombinant AAV virions into muscle tissue, e.g., by intramuscular injection, as well as for the in vitro transduction...http://www.google.de/patents/US20020147172?utm_source=gb-gplus-sharePatent US20020147172 - Methods for delivering DNA to muscle cells using recombinant adeno-associated virus vectors
