Relative binding affinities were calculated as (Kd of the native hormone/Kd of analog) × 100 (%). The experimental Kd values are provided in ESI. The statistical evaluation of data is shown in Fig. 3. n.d. is not determined. gly means glycosylated. Data on gly pro-IGF2(156) were obtained from only one measurement due to the small amount of material available.
