Abstract

We introduce a chemoenzymatic strategy for straightforward in vitro generation of C- terminally linked fusion proteins. Tubulin tyrosine ligase is used for the incorporation of complementary click chemistry handles facilitating subsequent formation of functional bispecific antibody- fragments. This simple strategy may serve as central conjugation hub for a modular protein ligation platform.
