Abstract

Abstract Insulin derivatives which are water soluble, readily isolated, immunologically acceptable and which retain hypolgycaemic 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. An additional refinement comprises blocking tyrosine hydroxyl groups with substituents which are releasable in vivo thereby achieving latent activity which is revealed progressively in order to provide prolonged action.
