  • Publication number: 20110003744
    Abstract: The present invention provides conjugates between erythropoietin and PEG moieties. The conjugates are linked via an intact glycosyl linking group interposed between and covalently attached to the peptide and the modifying group. The conjugates are formed from glycosylated peptides by the action of a glycosyltransferase. The glycosyltransferase ligates a modified sugar moiety onto a glycosyl residue on the peptide. Also provided are methods for preparing the conjugates, methods for treating various disease conditions with the conjugates, and pharmaceutical formulations including the conjugates.

  • Publication number: 20100330645
    Abstract: The present invention provides conjugates between peptides and PEG moieties. The conjugates are linked via an intact glycosyl linking group that is interposed between and covalently attached to the peptide and the modifying group. The conjugates are formed from both glycosylated and unglycosylated peptides by the action of a glycosyltransferase. The glycosyltransferase ligates a modified sugar moiety onto either an amino acid or glycosyl residue on the peptide. Also provided are pharmaceutical formulations including the conjugates. Methods for preparing the conjugates are also within the scope of the invention.

  • Patent number: 7569376
    Abstract: This invention provides recombinant glycosyltransferase fusion proteins having a desired level of expression and enzymatic activity (for example, acceptor substrate specificity or catalytic activity). The fusion proteins of the invention have a functional domain of a first glycosyltransferase joined, directly or through a peptide linker, to a subsequence of a functional domain of a second glycosyltransferase. Nucleic acids that encode the fusion proteins are also provided, as are host cells for expressing the fusion proteins and methods of making and using the fusion proteins of the invention.
