pharmacology
-
urate oxidase is a potential therapeutic protein in the prevention and treatment of tumor lysis syndrome and hyperuricemia. However, its severe immunogenicity limits its clinical application. Engineering site-specific modifications of keto groups in urate oxidase by using evolved Methanocaldococcus jannaschii aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase(s)/suppressor tRNA pairs reduces its antigenicity. The mutated uricase exhibits decreased antigenic properties, while its catalytic activities remain unchanged
