摘要:
Methods for conjugating peptides are provided comprising i) reacting a peptide with a first compound comprising a functional group in the presence of a transglutaminase capable of incorporating said compound into the peptide to form a transaminated peptide, and ii) reacting said transaminated peptide with e.g. a functionalized polymer capable of reacting with the functional group incorporated in the peptide in the enzymatic reaction.
摘要:
Methods for the selective conjugation of peptides which comprises an enzymatic incorporation of a functional group at the C-terminal end of a peptide followed by reaction with a second compound comprising the moiety to be conjugated to the peptide, wherein said second compound comprises a functional group which selectively reacts with the incorporated functional group.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for increasing the selectivity of an enzyme, which method comprises performing the reaction in the presence of an enhancing compound selected from one of ethylene glycol, propylene glycol or glycerol.
摘要:
The present invention relates to novel human glucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP-2) peptides and human glucagon-like peptide-2 derivatives which have a protracted profile of action as well as polynucleotide constructs encoding such peptides, vectors and host cells comprising and expressing the polynucleotide, pharmaceutical compositions, uses and methods of treatment.
摘要:
The present invention relates generally to a novel method of introducing property modifying groups to a protein. In particular, the present invention relates to the derivatization of lysine residues, as well as new conjugates of growth hormones with improved pharmacological properties, and methods for their preparation and use in therapy.
摘要:
Novel growth hormone conjugates comprising a growth hormone compound (GH) and a growth hormone binding protein (GHBP) are disclosed. The invention also encompasses a novel derivatization method for producing stable, long-lasting conjugate (hGH-GHBP) by site specific conjugation. The novel GH-GHBP conjugates have an extended half-life in circulation that facilitates therapeutic use of the protein. The GH-GHBP conjugates exhibit pharmacological properties such as increased functional in vivo half-life, improved renal filtration, improved protease protection and albumin binding.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method of treating migraine, non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (type II diabetes), sepsis, inflammation and/or vasomotor disturbances. This method utilizes a hexapeptide of formula (I)A.sup.1 -A.sup.2 -A.sup.3 -A.sup.4 -A.sup.5 -A.sup.6 -Y (I)wherein A.sup.1, A.sup.2, A.sup.3, A.sup.4, A.sup.5, A.sup.6 and Y are as defined in the specification.
