Zusammenfassung: | Recombinant AAV (rAAV) vectors comprising a rAVV genome comprising a heterologous nucleic acid encoding a lysosomal protein, e.g., acid alpha-glucosidase (GAA) polypeptide, and optionally a signal peptide and/or optionally a targeting sequence, e.g., IGF2 targeting peptide, operatively linked to a liver-specific promoter (LSP), enabling the GAA polypeptide to be secreted from the liver and targeted to the lysosomes. Particular embodiments relate to a recombinant AAV (rAAV) vector encoding an alpha-glucosidase (GAA) polypeptide, having a liver secretory signal peptide and a IGF2 targeting peptide that binds human cation-independent mannose-6-phosphate receptor (CI-MPR) or to the IGF2 receptor, permitting proper subcellular localization of the GAA polypeptide to lysosomes. Also encompassed are cells, and methods to treat a lysosomal disease, for example, a glycogen storage disease type II (GSD II) disease and/or Pompe Disease with the rAAV vector. |
