Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	Provided is a construct comprising (i) a nucleotide sequence which encodes tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), (ii) a nucleotide sequence which encodes GTP-cyclohydrolase I (CH1) and (iii) a nucleotide sequence which encodes Aromatic Amino Acid Dopa Decarboxylase (AADC) wherein the nucleotide sequence encoding TH is linked to the nucleotide sequence encoding CH1 such that they encode a fusion protein TH-CH1. Also provided is a construct comprising (i) a nucleotide sequence which encodes tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), (ii) a nucleotide sequence which encodes GTP-cyclohydrolase I (CH1) and (iii) a nucleotide sequence which encodes Aromatic Amino Acid Dopa Decarboxylase (AADC) wherein the nucleotide sequence encoding AADC is linked to the nucleotide sequence encoding TH such that they encode a fusion protein AADC-TH or TH-AADC. Further provided is a viral vector comprising such nucleotide sequences and its use in the treatment and/or prevention of Parkinson's disease.
