Resonance assignment and structural characterization of pharmacologically relevant proteins promise to improve understanding and safety of these proteins by rational design. However, the PEG coating that is used to evade the immune system also causes these molecules to evade the standard structural biology methodologies. We here demonstrate that it is possible to obtain the resonance assignment and a reliable structural model of large PEGylated proteins through an integrated approach encompassing NMR and X-ray crystallography.
