1. A fusion protein comprising
an antibody or a fragment thereof, operable to transmigrate the blood-brain barrier (BBB), that selectively binds IGF1R,
a therapeutic polypeptide for the treatment of a lysosomal storage disease (LSD), and
a serum half-life extending element selected from the group consisting of a human serum albumin and an albumin targeting moiety,
wherein the antibody or fragment thereof comprises
a complementarity determining region (CDR) 1 sequence EYPSNFYA (SEQ ID NO:6); CDR2 sequence VSRDGLTT (SEQ ID NO:7); and CDR3 sequence AIVITGVWNKVDVNSRSYHY (SEQ ID NO:8); or
a complementarity determining region (CDR) 1 sequence GRTIDNYA (SEQ ID NO:11); CDR2 sequence IDWGDGGX, where X is A or T (SEQ ID NO: 12); and CDR3 sequence AMARQSRVNLDVARYDY (SEQ ID NO: 13).
