Abstract: The present invention relates to conjugation-competent albumins and albumin-related polypeptides, and their conjugates with at least one moiety, and to polynucleotides encoding them.

Abstract: Based on the three-dimensional structure of albumin, the inventors have designed variant polypeptides (muteins) which have one or more cysteine residues with a free thiol group (hereinafter referred to as “thio-albumin”). The variant polypeptide may be conjugated through the sulphur atom of the cysteine residue to a conjugation partner such as a bioactive compound.

Abstract: The invention provides an improved host strain for production of desired protein.
