Abstract excerpt
A method is described for the elimination of non-specific cleavage of fusion proteins by factor Xa. Putative non-specific cleavage sites C-terminal to lysyl residues are blocked by reversible acylation by 3,4,5,6-tetrahydrophthalic anhydride prior to cleavage. After cleavage, the acyl groups are removed quantitatively by exposure to slightly acidic conditions. This method employs no harsh reagents or conditions,...
