Abstract

Aspects of the disclosure relate to barcoded chimeric adeno-associated virus (AAV) capsid libraries, chimeric capsids and related recombinant AAVs (rAAVs) identified using the libraries. Specifically, the chimeric AAV capsid libraries comprise a plurality of nucleic adds encoding AAV capsid proteins, wherein each nucleic acid (i) encodes a unique AAV capsid protein having distinct polypeptide regions of greater than six amino acids in length that are derived from at least two different AAV serotypes, and (ii) comprises a unique barcode sequence. Further disclosed are methods of preparing an AAV library and identifying AAV capsids tropic for a target tissue.
