Title:
METHOD FOR ENZYMATIC MODIFICATION OF N-TERMINUS OF PROTEIN
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/061128
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The object is to provide a protein having the modified N-terminus in a large quantity. Disclosed is a method for preparation of a protein having an N-terminus that has a modified phenylalanine residue. According to the method, in a protein having an Arg or Lys residue at the N-terminus, a modified phenylalanine residue is added to the N-terminal arginine residue with a modified phenylalanine tRNAPhe using a leucine/phenylalanine-tRNA protein transferase (LFPT) capable of adding a Leu or Phe residue to the terminus, whereby a protein having a modified phenylalanine residue at the N-terminus can be prepared.
