Determination of modification degree of polysialylated therapeutic proteins using (1)H-NMR spectroscopy

Water soluble polymers and their derivatives bound to proteins can dramatically favor the biological activity of new drugs and vaccines. Quantification of the modification degree of the protein is crucial during the development and licensing phase and later in order to monitor the industrial production process and to match product specification. In this work, we describe an innovative way to measure directly the modification degree of polysialylated proteins using proton NMR (Nuclear Magnetic...
