Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of medicines, and particularly relates to a conjugate group, a conjugate, a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
RNA interference (RNAi) is a powerful gene silencing tool that utilizes small interfering RNA (siRNA) of 19-25 nucleotides to degrade specific mRNAs in a highly sequence-specific manner. siRNA is considered a major participant in gene therapy and has shown broad potential for the treatment of a variety of gene-facilitated diseases including viral infections, cardiovascular diseases and cancers. Compared with small molecular drugs and antibodies, the novel drug is a novel drug which takes direct targeting mRNA as a distinction and can inhibit the expression of pathogenic proteins.
Despite the great therapeutic potential of siRNA, its clinical use remains challenging, mainly due to the lack of an effective delivery system. siRNA has been developed clinically for about twenty years, and only one siRNA-based drug (Patisiran) has been approved by the us Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as an orphan drug state from the beginning.
Up to now, in preclinical studies, siRNA delivery strategies have been freed from complex lipid or polymer nanoparticles, in which multicomponent well-defined siRNA bioconjugates comprising chemical functions have a more uniform, stable and biocompatible structure. Since siRNA became a new class of gene therapies for the treatment of various diseases, siRNA bioconjugates, one of the main delivery strategies, offer the property of siRNA with the potential to enhance and broaden pharmacology while minimizing heterogeneity and stability-related toxicology.
Conjugates of N-acetylgalactosamine have become a major clinical strategy for delivering oligonucleotides to hepatocytes. Such conjugates recognize and internalize a glycoprotein galactose (Gal) or N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) moiety containing a terminus through binding to an effective internalizing asialoglycoprotein receptor (ASGPR). Trivalent and tetravalent GalNAc clusters have a higher affinity for ASGPR than monovalent and divalent sugar clusters.

Example 4 preparation of conjugates
1. Synthesis of nucleic acid sequences:
adopts a phosphoramidite nucleic acid solid phase synthesis method, uses a general solid phase carrier (CPG general column of Universal linker) to start a solid phase, the nucleotide monomers are linked one by one in the 3'-5' direction according to the sense (SS) or Antisense (AS) strand sequence order of the sequence. Each nucleoside monomer connected comprises four reaction cycles of deprotection, coupling, capping and oxidation. The synthesis conditions set parameters according to the instrument.
The synthesis procedure included the following unit cycles:
1) Deprotection (De-blocking): ribonucleotides with DMT (di-p-methoxytrityl) protecting groups at the 5 '-OH end are removed from the solid phase carrier and ribonucleotides using trichloroacetic acid (TCA) in the first step of synthesis, so that the 5' -OH of the naked ribonucleotide is coupled with a new base;
2) Coupling (Coupling): firstly, pumping an activating reagent Activator into the CPG column, then pumping the next phosphoramidite nucleotide monomer, and mixing in the column to form a phosphoramidite tetrazole active intermediate;
when the activated phosphoramidite tetrazole contacts CPG-Oligo, nucleophilic reaction is carried out with 5' hydroxyl, coupling is carried out, tetrazole is removed, and one nucleotide is extended;
3) Capping (Capping): because the coupling efficiency can not reach 100%, in order to prevent the uncoupling of the CPG-Oligo from continuing to enter the next coupling step, the 5' hydroxyl cap of the CPG-Oligo is blocked by using CapA and CapB reagents;
4) Oxidation (Oxidation) or thio: after the coupling reaction, the nucleotide is connected with the oligonucleotide on CPG through a phosphite ester bond (trivalent phosphorus), the phosphite ester bond is unstable and is easy to be subjected to acid and alkaline hydrolysis, and the trivalent phosphorus is oxidized into pentavalent phosphorus oxide through an oxidizing reagent. Thio refers to the reaction of trivalent phosphorus of a phosphorous ester linkage to form a pentavalent phosphorus sulfide linkage by a thio reagent under weakly alkaline conditions.

Divers.2011,15, 751-757.). Annealing the sense strand and the antisense strand to obtain a conjugate 2;
see in particular table 2:
