    Abstract PEGylation is one of the most widely employed strategies to increase the circulatory half-life of proteins and to reduce immune responses. However, conventional PEGylation protocols often require excess reagents and extended reaction times because of their inefficiency. This study demonstrates that a microwave-induced transient heating phenomenon can be exploited to significantly accelerate protein PEGylation and even increase the degree of PEGylation achievable beyond what is possible at room temperature. This can be accomplished under conditions that do not compromise protein integrity. Several PEGylation chemistries and proteins are tested, and mechanistic insight is provided. Under certain conditions, extremely high levels of PEGylation were achieved in a matter of minutes. Moreover, considering the significantly reduced reaction times, the microwave-induced transient heating concept was adapted for continuous flow manufacturing of bioconjugates.

    Abstract Bioconjugation reactions, such as protein PEGylation, generally require excess reagents because of their inefficiency. Intriguingly, few reports have investigated the fundamental causes of this inefficiency. This study demonstrates that the excluded volume effect (EVE)─caused by the mutual repulsion of methoxy poly(ethylene glycol) (mPEG) and proteins under typical PEGylation conditions─causes proteins and protein-reactive mPEG (5 kDa) to self-associate into separate "protein-rich" and "mPEG-rich" nano-domains (i.e., soluble self-assemblies). To overcome this obstacle to reaction, "unreactive" low-molecular-weight mPEG was added as a co-solvent to promote the association between the larger protein and the reactive mPEG molecules by harnessing the same EVE. The near complete PEGylation of lysozyme could be achieved with close to stoichiometric amounts of reactive mPEG, and beneficial effects were observed for other proteins. Considering the general nature of the EVE (e.g., salting-out and PEGying-out), this study provides important perspectives on enhancing bioconjugation reactions, which are relevant to many nanoscale systems.
