ABSTRACT:
A method of making a glycosylated antibody or antibody fragment having a reactive ketone group on the glycosylated site is provided. The method comprises expressing a cell transfected with a vector encoding an antibody having one or more glycosylation sites in a culture medium comprising a ketone derivative of a saccharide or saccharide precursor and, in the case of an antibody fragment, fragmenting the resulting antibody into an antigen-binding antibody fragment. Methods of making immunoconjugates comprising the glycosylated antibodies or antibody fragments also are provided, wherein the antibody or antibody fragment is reacted with an agent comprising a ketone-reactive group. Glycosylated antibodies and antibody fragments having a reactive ketone group on the glycosylated site, immunoconjugates comprising such antibodies and antibody fragments and in vivo targeting methods using such antibodies, antibody fragments and immunoconjugates also are provided.
