66. A method of making a fEPO polypeptide comprising a non-naturally encoded amino acid, the method comprising, culturing cells comprising a polynucleotide or polynucleotides encoding a fEPO polypeptide and comprising a selector codon, an orthogonal RNA synthetase and an orthogonal tRNA under conditions to permit expression of the fEPO polypeptide comprising a non-naturally encoded amino acid;
- and purifying the fEPO polypeptide from the cells.
-
67. A method of increasing serum half-life or circulation time of fEPO, the method comprising substituting a non-naturally encoded amino acid for any one or more amino acids in naturally occurring fEPO.
-
68. A fEPO polypeptide encoded by a polynucleotide having a sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:
- 24;
SEQ ID NO;
25;
SEQ ID NO;
26 or SEQ ID NO;
