Protein denaturation processes involving aggregation are among the prime factors impeding the development of stable protein drug formulations
A problem in designing rational strategies counteracting the aggregation is that a sound molecular basis underlying the denaturation process is usually not available
For our studies we used human growth hormone, which is a common therapeutic protein, and examined its aggregation mechanism under a range of process conditions. hGH is a single domain, globular protein consisting of 191 amino acids and has a molecular mass 22 kDa
