Abstract
A modified GAD especially characterized by a substantially preserved immunogenicity in connection with diabetes compared with a non-modified GAD and a reduced or non-existent effectivity in connection with a GABA-synthesis. The invention relates also to a method for manufacturing a modified GAD, a method for supplying a modified GAD, nucleotide sequence encoding the modified GAD, a vector containing the nucleic acid sequence, a host, a pharmaceutical composition comprising modified GAD and use thereof for treating and/or preventing autoimmune disorders such as IDDM.File in questo prodotto:
