Abstrakt: In order to create an active pharmaceutical substance of the drug with prolonged action the modification of recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor GCSF (filgrastim) with polyethylene glycol (PEG, M 21.5 kDa) was conducted. A method for preparation of PEG-filgrastim designed for the development and scaling-up of the technological process of production was described. Modification of proteins with PEG was performed by selective covalent attachment of the molecule alpha-methyl-PEG-propionaldehyde to the alpha-amino group of the N-terminal methionine amino acid residue of the recombinant GCSF. The conditions of the reaction, which provide the desired product yield at least 85% of the total protein, also high protein concentration in the reaction mixture (more than 9 mg/mL) and reduce consumption of PEG in terms of terminal alpha-amino group of the protein was chosen. The data of RP HPLC and MALDI-mass spectrometry showed that the produced drug modified by the N-terminal residue and contains no more than 10% of products with a high degree of modification.
