Transglutaminase mediated conjugation of peptides

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 transaminiated peptide with e.g. a functionalised polymer capable of reacting with the functional group incorporated in the peptide in the enzymatic reaction.
