Abstract

Abstract Insulin derivatives which are water soluble, readily isolated, immunologically acceptable and which retain hypoglycaemic activity are those in which at least one of the A1, B1 and B29 aminoacid amino groups is converted into a blocked amino group having a substituent capable of forming an anion, e.g., by substitution with dicarboxylic acid radicals.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 27
Claim 1
Independent Claim 60 words
A MONO-, DI- OR TRISIBSTITUTED INSULIN IN WHICH THE SUBSTITUENTS ARE LOCATED ON ONE OR MORE OF THE AMINO GROUPS OF THE A1 (GLYCINE), B1 (PHENYLALANINE) AND B29 (LYSINE) AMINO ACID UNITS, AT LEAST ONE OF SAID GROUPS BEING MONOACYLATED WITH THE MONOBASIC ACYL RESIDUE OF A DICARBOXYLIC ACID SELECTED FROM THE GROUP CONSISTING OF SUCCINEC ACID AND GLUTARIC ACID.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 60 words
A MONO-, DI- OR TRISIBSTITUTED INSULIN IN WHICH THE SUBSTITUENTS ARE LOCATED ON ONE OR MORE OF THE AMINO GROUPS OF THE A1 (GLYCINE), B1 (PHENYLALANINE) AND B29 (LYSINE) AMINO ACID UNITS, AT LEAST ONE OF SAID GROUPS BEING MONOACYLATED WITH THE MONOBASIC ACYL RESIDUE OF A DICARBOXYLIC ACID SELECTED FROM THE GROUP CONSISTING OF SUCCINEC ACID AND GLUTARIC ACID.

Claim 24
Dependent Claim 61 words
A process for the preparation of an insulin according to claim 1 which comprises acylating one or more of the A1, B1 and B29 amino groups of insulin with a member selected from the group consisting of succinic anhydride and glutaric anhydride in an excess of from 2 to 10 moles for each of said amino groups per mole of insulin.
Claim 25
