Description:
GL6 is a trivalent GalNAc-lipid conjugate designed for ASGPR-mediated hepatic delivery. It features a lysine-based scaffold covalently linked to three GalNAc moieties via a 36-unit PEG spacer, anchored by a 1,2-O-dioctadecyl-sn-glyceryl (DSG) lipid tail. This structure balances ligand accessibility (via optimized PEG length) and nanoparticle stability (via hydrophobic DSG anchoring). Compared to GL3 (TRIS scaffold, same PEG length), GL6’s simplified lysine scaffold improves manufacturability. In LDLR-deficient models, GL6 enabled 61% liver editing (vs. 5% with standard LNPs) at 2 mg/kg, demonstrating superior ASGPR targeting. Its design minimizes ligand crowding (0.05 mol% surface density) while maximizing endosomal escape and durable gene editing.
Handling:
Providing storage is as stated on the product vial and the vial is kept tightly sealed, the product can be stored for up to 24 months.
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance,
we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one
month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at
least 1 hour.
