Abstract
The present disclosure provides, among other things, a recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) vector comprising an AAV8 or AAV9 capsid and a codon-optimized sequence encoding a human iduronate-2-sulfatase (I2S) enzyme. The disclosure also provides a method of treating a subject having Hunter syndrome (MPS II), comprising administering to the subject in need thereof a recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) vector comprising an AAV8 or AAV9 capsid, and a promoter operably linked to a nucleic acid sequence that encodes iduronate-2-sulfatase (I2S), and wherein administering results in an increase in I2S enzymatic activity in the subject.
