The application describes ceDNA vectors having linear and continuous structure for delivery and expression of a transgene. ceDNA vectors comprise an expression cassette flanked by two ITR sequences, where the expression cassette encodes a transgene encoding PAH protein. Some ceDNA vectors further comprise cis-regulatory elements, including regulatory switches. Further provided herein are methods and cell lines for reliable gene expression of PAH protein in vitro, ex vivo and in vivo using the ceDNA vectors. Provided herein are method and compositions comprising ceDNA vectors useful for the expression of PAH protein in a cell, tissue or subject, and methods of treatment of diseases with said ceDNA vectors expressing PAH protein. Such PAH protein can be expressed for treating disease, e.g., Phenylketonuria (PKU).
