Substituted PEG-interferon conjugates of formulae IA and IB where PEG is linked by means of activated linking reagents of formulae IIA, IIB, or IIB-1 to an amino group in the interferon, and activated linking reagents of formulae IIA, IIB, or IIB-1. The conjugates are not readily susceptible to in vivo hydrolytic cleavage, have enhanced in vivo half life, and reduce the immunogenicity of the interferon while maintaining biological activity.
