Enzymatic labeling of proteins: techniques and approaches

TL;DR: This review article summarizes the enzymatic strategies, which enable site-specific functionalization of proteins with a variety of different functional groups, which include formylglycine generating enzyme, sialyl transferases, phosphopantetheinyltransferases, O-GlcNAc post-translational modification, sortagging, transglutaminase, farnesyltransferase, biotin ligase, lipoic acid ligase and N-myristoyltransferase
Journal ArticleDOI

Site-Specific PEGylation of Therapeutic Proteins.

TL;DR: This review seeks to summarize considerable research into various methods for the site-specific PEGylation of proteins, which has grown dramatically in recent years resulting in several approved drugs.
