To verify which of the glutamines of Mut4 are transglutaminated, the PEGylation sites of native and mutated G-CSF were analyzed by enzymatic ... with the calculations performed on the mutant. We are led to conclude that PEGylation of one of the two glutamines impairs the PEGylation of the neighboring...
