Preparation and Characterization of Site-Specific Fatty Chain-Modified Recombinant Human Granulocyte Colony Stimulating Factor.

ABSTRACT: The clinical use of recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (rhG-CSF) is limited by its short serum half-life. In this study, a long-acting strategy for site-specific modification of rhG-CSF with 1-pentadecyl-1H-pyrrole-2,5-dione (C15 fatty chain-maleimide, C15-MAL) was studied in mixed DMSO-aqueous solutions. The factors influencing the conjugation reaction were investigated and optimized, and a high yield of the desired product (C15-rhG-CSF) was achieved. Subsequently, C15-rhG-CSF product was efficiently purified using preparative liquid chromatography, and further characterized. Circular dichroism spectroscopy analysis showed that the secondary structure of C15-rhG-CSF had no significant difference from unmodified rhG-CSF. C15-rhG-CSF retained 87.2% of in vitro bi
