Article Title: | Probing the frontiers of glycoprotein synthesis: The fully elaborated β-subunit of the human follicle-stimulating hormone |
Abstract: | Ambitious undertaking: The β-subunit of the human follicle-stimulating hormone (hFSH) displaying a N-linked consensus sequence oligosaccharide at each of the two wild-type sites was synthesized. The glycoprotein has been designed with acetamidomethyl protected cysteine residues, anticipating folding and association with the α-subunit. This represents the largest realistically glycosylated homogeneous glycoprotein obtained by using strictly chemical methods. Copyright © 2012 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim. |
