A fusion antibody comprising:
- (a) a fusion protein comprising the amino acid sequences of an immunoglobulin heavy chain and an arylsulfatase A monomer (ASA), and (b) an immunoglobulin light chain;
- wherein the fusion antibody crosses the blood brain barrier (BBB).
A fusion antibody comprising:
- (a) a fusion protein comprising the amino acid sequences of an immunoglobulin heavy chain and an arylsulfatase A monomer, and (b) an immunoglobulin light chain;
- wherein the fusion antibody crosses the blood brain barrier (BBB), wherein the amino acid sequence of the arylsulfatase A is covalently linked to the carboxy terminus of the amino acid sequence of the immunoglobulin heavy chain.
