Procedure
A solution of 800 mg of bovine serum albumin (BSA) in 8 mL of 50 mM potassium phosphate (pH 7.5) was cooled in an ice-bath. To the solution was added 12 mL of DMSO dropwise, and the reaction mixture was maintained below room temperature. To the protein solution was added a solution of 15 mg of MDMA derivative (1L) in 1 mL of anhydrous DMF dropwise. The reaction mixture was allowed to stir at room temperature 48 hours. The resulting conjugate was placed in a dialysis tube (10,000 MW cut-off) and was dialyzed in 1 L of 70% DMSO in 50 mM potassium phosphate (pH 7.5, 3 changes, at least 3 hours each), 1 L of 50% DMSO in 50 mM potassium phosphate (at least 3 hours), 1 L of 30% DMSO in 50 mM potassium phosphate (at least 3 hours), 1 L of 10% DMSO in 50 mM potassium phosphate (at least 3 hours) at room temperature. The trifluoroacetamido group of the conjugate was deprotected by dialysis of the resulting conjugate against 10% ammonium hydroxide for 3 days (1 L each for approximately 24 hours each), followed by 6 changes with 50 mM potassium phosphate (pH 7.5) at 4° C. (1 L each for at least 6 hours). The protein concentration was determined to be 6.8 mg/mL using BioRad Coomassie blue protein assay (Bradford, M., Anal. Biochem. 72:248, 1976). A total of 38 mL of the conjugate was obtained.
