Currently, approximately 100 therapeutic proteins obtained approval from Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and they are widely used in the treatment of various diseases such as cancer, diabetes, anemia and infections. This paper will summarize the production processes, pharmaceuticals and physicochemical properties and important classes of therapeutic proteins with their potential use in clinical applications.
Keywords: Therapeutic proteins, recombinant DNA technologies, monoclonal antibodies, interferons, insulin and erythropoietin.
