Abstract:
Methylglyoxal (MGO)-modified recombinant TNF-alpha antibodies (e.g., Adalimumab) are identified. MGO modification decreases binding between Adalimumab and TNF-alpha. Methods are disclosed for reducing the presence of MGO-modified antibodies in the production of Adalimumab TNF-alpha antibodies.

Abstract:
The instant invention relates to modulated lysine variant species compositions comprising a protein, e.g., an antibody, or antigen-binding portion thereof, and methods, e.g., cell culture and/or protein purification methods, for producing such modulated lysine variant species compositions. Methods for using such compositions to treat a disorder, e.g., a disorder in which TNFα is detrimental, are also provided.
