1. A polynucleotide comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding a monoclonal IgG antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof which comprises at least one lysine derivative,
at positions selected from the group consisting of 131, 177, and 199 of a heavy chain of a human IgG antibody and at positions 155, 191, and 197 of a κ chain of a human antibody numbering according to the EU-index,
wherein said lysine derivative is encoded by a nonsense codon, and
wherein said lysine derivative is selected from the group consisting of a Z-lysine derivative, N6-(((trans-cyclooct-2-en-1-yl)oxy)carbonyl)-L-lysine (hereinafter, abbreviated as “TCO*-Lys”), and N6-((bicyclo[6.1.0]non-4-yn-9-ylmethoxy)carbonyl)-L-lysine (hereinafter, abbreviated as “BCN-Lys”).
