Abstract

See full text

A method is provided for attaching .sup.32 P to a protein, normally an antibody, that will bind with and irradiate a tumor-associated structure leading to diagnostic benefit. The invention is based upon the introduction of a peptide region to the protein, which is capable of acting as a substrate for a phosphokinase utilizing .sup.32 P-.gamma.-ATP as a typical source of the radionuclide. The conjugation of the substrate molecule to the protein may be achieved by chemical methods or by genetic engineering techniques. Novel substrate peptides are disclosed.
