N-GLYCOSYLATED HUMAN GROWTH HORMONE WITH PROLONGED CIRCULATORY HALF-LIFE
The present invention relates to novel human growth hormone (hGH) variant(s) with one or more N-glycans. The hGH variants of the invention comprises an amino acid sequence which includes at least one N-glycosylation motif (N-X-S/T) arising from one or more mutations not present in the wild type hGH....

Zusammenfassung: | The present invention relates to novel human growth hormone (hGH) variant(s) with one or more N-glycans. The hGH variants of the invention comprises an amino acid sequence which includes at least one N-glycosylation motif (N-X-S/T) arising from one or more mutations not present in the wild type hGH. The hGH variants of the invention have a prolonged circulatory half-life and thus can be effectively used as a protein therapeutic for disease states that will benefit from increased levels of hGH. The process of obtaining the hGH variants is also encompassed by the invention. |
