Abstract: Small and macromolecular modifiers and different methods were used for modification of E. coli L-asparaginase to reduce the antigenicity.The results showed that the macromolecular modifiers are better than that of small molecular modifier acetic anhydride for reduction of antigenicity.Acomparison of the modified L-asparaginase by PEG, dextran,dextran sulfate and heparin showed that there is a relationship between the rate of modified free amino groups and the reduction of antigenicity.

Key words: L-asparaginase, PEG, Acetic anhydride, Chemical modification
