Certain Sugar Moieties In certain embodiments, modified sugar moieties are non-bicyclic modified sugar moieties. In certain embodiments, modified sugar moieties are bicyclic or tricyclic sugar moieties. In certain embodiments, modified sugar moieties are sugar surrogates. Such sugar surrogates may comprise one or more substitutions corresponding to those of other types of modified sugar moieties. In certain embodiments, modified sugar moieties are non-bicyclic modified sugar moieties comprising a furanosyl ring with one or more substituent groups none of which bridges two atoms of the furanosyl ring to form a bicyclic structure. Such non bridging substituents may be at any position of the furanosyl, including but not limited to substituents at the 2’, 3’, 4’, and/or 5’ positions. In certain embodiments one or more non-bridging substituent of non- bicyclic modified sugar moieties is branched. In certain embodiments, non-bicyclic modifed sugar moieties comprise a substituent group at the 2’-position. Examples of substituent groups suitable for the 2’-position of non-bicyclic modified sugar moieties include but are not limited to: -F, -OCH3 (“OMe” or “O-methyl”), and -O(CH2)2OCH3 (“MOE” or “O-methoxyethyl”).

Examples of substituent groups suitable for the 3’-position of modified sugar moieties include but are not limited to alkoxy (e.g., methoxy), alkyl (e.g., methyl, ethyl). In certain embodiments, non-bicyclic modified sugar moieties comprise a substituent group at the 4’-position. Examples of 4’-substituent groups suitable for non-bicyclic modified sugar moieties include but are not limited to alkoxy (e.g., methoxy), alkyl, and those described in Manoharan et al., WO 2015/106128. In certain embodiments, non-bicyclic modified sugar moieties comprise a substituent group at the 5’-position.

In certain embodiments, non-bicyclic modified sugar moieties comprise more than one non-bridging sugar substituent, for example, 2'-F-5'-methyl sugar moieties and the modified sugar moieties and modified nucleosides described in Migawa et al., WO 2008/101157 and Rajeev et al., US2013/0203836. In certain embodiments, a 2’-substituted non-bicyclic modified nucleoside comprises a sugar moiety comprising a non-bridging 2’-substituent group selected from: F, NH2, N3, OCF3, OCH3, O(CH2)3NH2, CH2CH=CH2, OCH2CH=CH2, O(CH2)2OCH3,, O(CH2)2SCH3, O(CH2)2ON(Rm)(Rn), O(CH2)2O(CH2)2N(CH3)2, and N-substituted acetamide (OCH2C(=O)-N(Rm)(Rn)), where each Rm and Rn is, independently, H, an amino protecting group, or substituted or unsubstituted C1-C10 alkyl. In certain embodiments, a 2’-substituted non-bicyclic modified nucleoside comprises a sugar moiety comprising a non-bridging 2’-substituent group selected from: F, OCF3, OCH3, O(CH2)2OCH3 (MOE), O(CH2)2SCH3, O(CH2)2O(CH2)2N(CH3)2, O(CH2)2ON(CH3)2 (“DMAOE”), O(CH2)2O(CH2)2N(CH3)2 (“DMAEOE”), and OCH2C(=O)-N(H)CH3 (“NMA”).

In certain embodiments, modified furanosyl sugar moieties and nucleosides incorporating such modified furanosyl sugar moieties are further defined by isomeric configuration. For example, a 2’-deoxyfuranosyl sugar moiety may be in seven isomeric configurations other than the naturally occurring β-D-deoxyribosyl configuration. Such modified sugar moieties are described in, e.g., WO 2019/157531. A 2’-modified sugar moiety has an additional stereocenter at the 2’-position relative to a 2’-deoxyfuranosyl sugar moiety; therefore, such sugar moieties have a total of sixteen possible isomeric configurations. 2’-modified sugar moieties described herein are in the β-D-ribosyl isomeric configuration unless otherwise specified. In naturally occurring nucleic acids, sugars are linked to one another 3’ to 5’. In certain embodiments, oligonucleotides include one or more nucleoside or sugar moiety linked at an alternative position, for example at the 2’ or inverted 5’ to 3’. For example, where the linkage is at the 2’ position, the 2’-substituent groups may instead be at the 3’-position. Certain modified sugar moieties comprise a substituent that bridges two atoms of the furanosyl ring to form a second ring, resulting in a bicyclic sugar moiety. In certain embodiments, the bicyclic sugar moiety comprises a bridge between the 4' and the 2' furanose ring atoms. Nucleosides comprising such bicyclic sugar moieties have been referred to as bicyclic nucleosides (BNAs), locked nucleosides (LNA), or conformationally restricted nucleotides (CRN). Certain such compounds are described in US Patent Publication No.2013/0190383 and PCT publication WO 2013/036868. In certain such embodiments, the bicyclic sugar moiety comprises a bridge between the 4' and the 2' furanose ring atoms. In certain such embodiments, the furanose ring is a ribose ring.

In certain embodiments, bicyclic sugar moieties and nucleosides incorporating such bicyclic sugar moieties are further defined by isomeric configuration. For example, an LNA nucleoside (described herein) may be in the α-L configuration or in the β- D configuration. α-L-methyleneoxy (4’-CH2-O-2’) or α-L-LNA bicyclic nucleosides have been incorporated into oligonucleotides that showed antisense activity (Frieden et al., Nucleic Acids Research, 2003, 21, 6365-6372). The addition of locked nucleic acids to siRNAs has been shown to increase siRNA stability in serum, and to reduce off-target effects (Elmen, J. et al., (2005) Nucleic Acids Research, 33(1):439-447; Mook, OR. et al., (2007) Mal Cane Ther., 6(3):833-843; Grunweller, A. et al., (2003) Nucleic Acids Research, 31(12):3185-3193). Herein, general descriptions of bicyclic nucleosides include both isomeric configurations. When the positions of specific bicyclic nucleosides (e.g., LNA or cEt) are identified in exemplified embodiments herein, they are in the β-D configuration, unless otherwise specified. In certain embodiments, modified sugar moieties comprise one or more non-bridging sugar substituent and one or more bridging sugar substituent (e.g., 5’-substituted and 4’-2’ bridged sugars). In certain embodiments, modified sugar moieties are sugar surrogates. In certain such embodiments, the oxygen atom of the sugar moiety is replaced, e.g., with a sulfur, carbon or nitrogen atom. In certain such embodiments, such modified sugar moieties also comprise bridging and/or non-bridging substituents as described herein. For example, certain sugar surrogates comprise a 4’-sulfur atom and a substitution at the 2'-position (see, e.g., Bhat et al., U.S. 7,875,733 and Bhat et al., U.S.7,939,677) and/or the 5’ position. In certain embodiments, sugar surrogates comprise rings having other than 5 atoms. For example, in certain embodiments, a sugar surrogate comprises a six-membered tetrahydropyran (“THP”). Such tetrahydropyrans may be further modified or substituted. Nucleosides comprising such modified tetrahydropyrans include but are not limited to hexitol nucleic acid (“HNA”), anitol nucleic acid (“ANA”), mannitol nucleic acid (“MNA”) (see, e.g., Leumann, CJ. Bioorg. & Med. Chem.2002, 10, 841-854), fluoro HNA: (“F-HNA”, see e.g., Swayze et al., U.S.8,088,904; Swayze et al., U.S.8,440,803; Swayze et al., U.S.8,796,437; and Swayze et al., U.S.9,005,906; F-HNA can also be referred to as a F-THP or 3'-fluoro tetrahydropyran), and nucleosides comprising additional modified THP compounds having the formula: q 1 q2 T3 O q O 3 wherein, modified THP nucleoside: Bx is a T3 and T4 are each, independently, an internucleoside linking group linking the modified THP nucleoside to the remainder of an oligonucleotide or one of T3 and T4 is an internucleoside linking group linking the modified THP nucleoside to the remainder of an oligonucleotide and the other of T3 and T4 is H, a hydroxyl protecting group, a linked conjugate group, or a 5' or 3'-terminal group; q1, q2, q3, q4, q5, q6 and q7 are each, independently, H, C1-C6 alkyl, substituted C1-C6 alkyl, C2-C6 alkenyl, substituted C2-C6 alkenyl, C2-C6 alkynyl, or substituted C2-C6 alkynyl; and each of R1 and R2 is independently selected from among: hydrogen, halogen, substituted or unsubstituted alkoxy, NJ1J2, SJ1, N3, OC(=X)J1, OC(=X)NJ1J2, NJ3C(=X)NJ1J2, and CN, wherein X is O, S or NJ1, and each J1, J2, and J3 is, independently, H or C1-C6 alkyl.

In certain embodiments, R1 is F and R2 is H, in certain embodiments, R1 is methoxy and R2 is H, and in certain embodiments, R1 is methoxyethoxy and R2 is H. In certain embodiments, sugar surrogates comprise rings having more than 5 atoms and more than one heteroatom. For example, nucleosides comprising morpholino sugar moieties and their use in oligonucleotides have been reported (see, e.g., Braasch et al., Biochemistry, 2002, 41, 4503-4510 and Summerton et al., U.S.5,698,685; Summerton et al., U.S.5,166,315; Summerton et al., U.S.5,185,444; and Summerton et al., U.S.5,034,506). As used here, the term “morpholino” means a sugar surrogate having the following structure: O O Bx . morpholinos may be modified, for example by adding or altering various substituent groups from the above morpholino structure. Such sugar surrogates are referred to herein as “modified morpholinos.” In certain embodiments, sugar surrogates comprise acyclic moieties. Examples of nucleosides and oligonucleotides comprising such acyclic sugar surrogates include but are not limited to peptide nucleic acid (“PNA”), acyclic butyl nucleic acid (see, e.g., Kumar et al., Org.

Representative U.S. patents that teach the preparation of PNA compounds include, but are not limited to, U.S. Patent Nos.5,539,082; 5,714,331; and 5,719,262. Additional PNA compounds suitable for use in the oligonucleotides of the invention are described in, for example, in Nielsen et al., Science, 1991, 254, 1497-1500. In certain embodiments, sugar surrogates are the “unlocked” sugar structure of UNA (unlocked nucleic acid) nucleosides. UNA is an unlocked acyclic nucleic acid, wherein any of the bonds of the sugar has been removed, forming an unlocked sugar surrogate. Representative U.S. publications that teach the preparation of UNA include, but are not limited to, U.S.8,314,227; U.S.2013/0096289; U.S.2013/0011922; and U.S.2011/0313020.

Certain Modified Internucleoside Linkages The naturally occurring internucleoside linkage of RNA and DNA is a 3' to 5' phosphodiester linkage. In certain embodiments, nucleosides of modified oligonucleotides may be linked together using one or more modified internucleoside linkages. The two main classes of internucleoside linking groups are defined by the presence or absence of a phosphorus atom. Representative phosphorus-containing internucleoside linkages include, but are not limited to, phosphates, which contain a phosphodiester bond (“P=O”) (also referred to as unmodified or naturally occurring linkages), phosphotriesters, methylphosphonates, phosphoramidates, and phosphorothioates (“P=S”), and phosphorodithioates (“HS-P=S”). Representative non-phosphorus containing internucleoside linking groups include but are not limited to methylenemethylimino (-CH2-N(CH3)-O-CH2-), thiodiester, thionocarbamate (-O-C(=O)(NH)-S-); siloxane (-O-SiH2-O-); and N,N'-dimethylhydrazine (-CH2-N(CH3)-N(CH3)-). Modified internucleoside linkages, compared to naturally occurring phosphate linkages, can be used to alter, typically increase, nuclease resistance of the oligonucleotide. In certain embodiments, internucleoside linkages having a chiral atom can be prepared as a racemic mixture, or as separate enantiomers. Methods of preparation of phosphorous-containing and non-phosphorous- containing internucleoside linkages are well known to those skilled in the art. In certain embodiments, a modified internucleoside linkage is any of those described in WO 2021/030778.

In certain embodiments, a modified internucleoside linkage comprises a mesyl phosphoramidate linking group having a formula: In certain embodiments, a mesyl phosphoramidate internucleoside linkage may comprise a chiral center. In certain embodiments, modified oligonucleotides comprising (Rp) and/or (Sp) mesyl phosphoramidates comprise one or more of the following formulas, respectively, wherein “B” indicates a nucleobase: . but are not limited to alkylphosphonates and linkages having a chiral center can be prepared as populations of modified oligonucleotides comprising stereorandom internucleoside linkages, or as populations of modified oligonucleotides comprising phosphorothioate linkages in particular stereochemical configurations. In certain embodiments, populations of modified oligonucleotides comprise phosphorothioate internucleoside linkages wherein all of the phosphorothioate internucleoside linkages are stereorandom. Such modified oligonucleotides can be generated using synthetic methods that result in random selection of the stereochemical configuration of each phosphorothioate linkage. Nonetheless, each individual phosphorothioate of each individual oligonucleotide molecule has a defined stereoconfiguration. In certain embodiments, populations of modified oligonucleotides are enriched for modified oligonucleotides comprising one or more particular phosphorothioate internucleoside linkages in a particular, independently selected stereochemical configuration. In certain embodiments, the particular configuration of the particular phosphorothioate linkage is present in at least 65% of the molecules in the population. In certain embodiments, the particular configuration of the particular phosphorothioate linkage is present in at least 70% of the molecules in the population. In certain embodiments, the particular configuration of the particular phosphorothioate linkage is present in at least 80% of the molecules in the population. In certain embodiments, the particular configuration of the particular phosphorothioate linkage is present in at least 90% of the molecules in the population. In certain embodiments, the particular configuration of the particular phosphorothioate linkage is present in at least 99% of the molecules in the population. Such chirally enriched populations of modified oligonucleotides can be generated using synthetic methods known in the art, e.g., methods described in Oka et al., JACS 125, 8307 (2003), Wan et al. Nuc. Acid. Res.42, 13456 (2014), and WO 2017/015555. In certain embodiments, a population of modified oligonucleotides is enriched for modified oligonucleotides having at least one indicated phosphorothioate in the (Sp) configuration. In certain embodiments, a population of modified oligonucleotides is enriched for modified oligonucleotides having at least one phosphorothioate in the (Rp) configuration.

Further neutral internucleoside linkages include nonionic linkages comprising siloxane (dialkylsiloxane), carboxylate ester, carboxamide, sulfide, sulfonate ester and amides (See for example: Carbohydrate Modifications in Antisense Research; Y.S. Sanghvi and P.D. Cook, Eds., ACS Symposium Series 580; Chapters 3 and 4, 40-65). Further neutral internucleoside linkages include nonionic linkages comprising mixed N, O, S and CH2 component parts. In certain embodiments, modified oligonucleotides comprise one or more inverted nucleoside, as shown below: , wherein any nucleobase. In certain embodiments, an inverted nucleoside is terminal (i.e., the last nucleoside on one end of an oligonucleotide) and so only one internucleoside linkage depicted above will be present. In certain such embodiments, additional features (such as a conjugate group) may be attached to the inverted nucleoside. Such terminal inverted nucleosides can be attached to either or both ends of an oligonucleotide. In certain embodiments, such groups lack a nucleobase and are referred to herein as inverted sugar moieties. In certain embodiments, an inverted sugar moiety is terminal (i.e., attached to the last nucleoside on one end of an oligonucleotide) and so only one internucleoside linkage above will be present. In certain such embodiments, additional features (such as a conjugate group) may be attached to the inverted sugar moiety. Such terminal inverted sugar moieties can be attached to either or both ends of an oligonucleotide. In certain embodiments, nucleic acids can be linked 2’ to 5’ rather than the standard 3’ to 5’ linkage. Such a linkage is illustrated below. , wherein B.

Unless otherwise indicated, the patterns of sugar moieties, nucleobases, and internucleoside linkages are each independent of one another. Thus, a modified oligonucleotide may be described by its sugar motif, nucleobase motif and/or internucleoside linkage motif (as used herein, nucleobase motif describes the modifications to the nucleobases independent of the sequence of nucleobases). 1. Certain Sugar Motifs In certain embodiments, oligonucleotides comprise one or more type of modified sugar and/or unmodified sugar moiety arranged along the oligonucleotide or region thereof in a defined pattern or sugar motif. In certain instances, such sugar motifs include but are not limited to any of the sugar modifications discussed herein. In certain embodiments, modified oligonucleotides comprise a deoxy region. In certain embodiments, each nucleoside of the deoxy region is a 2’-β-D-deoxynucleoside. In certain embodiments, the deoxy region consists of 5-12 linked nucleosides. In certain embodiments, the deoxy region consists of 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, or 6-10 linked nucleosides. In certain embodiments, at least one nucleoside within the deoxy region comprises a modified sugar moiety. In certain embodiments, exactly one nucleoside within the deoxy region comprises a modified sugar moiety. In certain embodiments, two or three nucleosides within the deoxy region comprise a modified sugar moiety. In certain embodiments, the deoxy region is flanked on the 5’-side by a 5’-region consisting of linked 5’-region nucleosides and on the 3’-side by a 3’-region consisting of linked 3’-region nucleosides; wherein the 3’-most nucleoside of the 5’-region is a modified nucleoside and the 5’-most nucleoside of the 3’-region is a modified nucleoside. At least one nucleoside of the 5’-region comprises a modified sugar moiety; and at least one nucleoside of the 3’-region comprises a modified sugar moiety.

In certain embodiments, modified oligonucleotides comprise or consist of a region having a gapmer motif, which is defined by two external regions or “wings” and a central or internal region or “gap.” The three regions of a gapmer motif (the 5’-wing, the gap, and the 3’-wing) form a contiguous sequence of nucleosides wherein at least some of the sugar moieties of the nucleosides of each of the wings differ from at least some of the sugar moieties of the nucleosides of the gap. Specifically, at least the sugar moieties of the nucleosides of each wing that are closest to the gap (the 3’-most nucleoside of the 5’-wing and the 5’-most nucleoside of the 3’-wing) differ from the sugar moiety of the neighboring gap nucleosides, thus defining the boundary between the wings and the gap (i.e., the wing/gap junction). In certain embodiments, the sugar moieties within the gap are the same as one another. In certain embodiments, the gap includes one or more nucleoside having a sugar moiety that differs from the sugar moiety of one or more other nucleosides of the gap. In certain embodiments, the sugar motifs of the two wings are the same as one another (symmetric gapmer). In certain embodiments, the sugar motif of the 5'-wing differs from the sugar motif of the 3'-wing (asymmetric gapmer). In certain embodiments, the wings of a gapmer comprise 1-6 nucleosides. In certain embodiments, each nucleoside of each wing of a gapmer comprises a modified sugar moiety. In certain embodiments, at least one nucleoside of each wing of a gapmer comprises a modified sugar moiety.

Herein, the lengths (number of nucleosides) of the three regions of a gapmer may be provided using the notation [# of nucleosides in the 5’-wing] – [# of nucleosides in the gap] – [# of nucleosides in the 3’-wing]. Thus, a 3- 10-3 gapmer consists of 3 linked nucleosides in each wing and 10 linked nucleosides in the gap. Where such nomenclature is followed by a specific modification, that modification is the modification in each sugar moiety of each wing and the gap nucleosides comprise 2’-β-D-deoxyribosyl sugar moieties. Thus, a 5-10-5 MOE gapmer consists of 5 linked 2’-MOE nucleosides in the 5’-wing, 10 linked 2’- β-D-deoxynucleosides in the gap, and 5 linked 2’-MOE nucleosides in the 3’-wing.

C. Certain Lengths It is possible to increase or decrease the length of an oligonucleotide without eliminating activity. For example, in Woolf et al. (Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 89:7305-7309, 1992), a series of oligonucleotides 13-25 nucleobases in length were tested for their ability to induce cleavage of a target RNA in an oocyte injection model. Oligonucleotides 25 nucleobases in length with 8 or 11 mismatch bases near the ends of the oligonucleotides were able to direct specific cleavage of the target RNA, albeit to a lesser extent than the oligonucleotides that contained no mismatches. Similarly, target specific cleavage was achieved using 13 nucleobase oligonucleotides, including those with 1 or 3 mismatches. In certain embodiments, oligonucleotides (including modified oligonucleotides) can have any of a variety of ranges of lengths. In certain embodiments, oligonucleotides consist of X to Y linked nucleosides, where X represents the fewest number of nucleosides in the range and Y represents the largest number nucleosides in the range. In certain such embodiments, X and Y are each independently selected from 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, and 50; provided that X≤Y. For example, in certain embodiments, oligonucleotides consist of 12 to 13, 12 to 14, 12 to 15, 12 to 16, 12 to 17, 12 to 18, 12 to 19, 12 to 20, 12 to 21, 12 to 22, 12 to 23, 12 to 24, 12 to 25, 12 to 26, 12 to 27, 12 to 28, 12 to 29, 12 to 30, 13 to 14, 13 to 15, 13 to 16, 13 to 17, 13 to 18, 13 to 19, 13 to 20, 13 to 21, 13 to 22, 13 to 23, 13 to 24, 13 to 25, 13 to 26, 13 to 27, 13 to 28, 13 to 29, 13 to 30, 14 to 15, 14 to 16, 14 to 17, 14 to 18, 14 to 19, 14 to 20, 14 to 21, 14 to 22, 14 to 23, 14 to 24, 14 to 25, 14 to 26, 14 to 27, 14 to 28, 14 to 29, 14 to 30, 15 to 16, 15 to 17, 15 to 18, 15 to 19, 15 to 20, 15 to 21, 15 to 22, 15 to 23, 15 to 24, 15 to 25, 15 to 26, 15 to 27, 15 to 28, 15 to 29, 15 to 30, 16 to 17, 16 to 18, 16 to 19, 16 to 20, 16 to 21, 16 to 22, 16 to 23, 16 to 24, 16 to 25, 16 to 26, 16 to 27, 16 to 28, 16 to 29, 16 to 30, 17 to 18, 17 to 19, 17 to 20, 17 to 21, 17 to 22, 17 to 23, 17 to 24, 17 to 25, 17 to 26, 17 to 27, 17 to 28, 17 to 29, 17 to 30, 18 to 19, 18 to 20, 18 to 21, 18 to 22, 18 to 23, 18 to 24, 18 to 25, 18 to 26, 18 to 27, 18 to 28, 18 to 29, 18 to 30, 19 to 20, 19 to 21, 19 to 22, 19 to 23, 19 to 24, 19 to 25, 19 to 26, 19 to 27, 19 to 28, 19 to 29, 19 to 30, 20 to 21, 20 to 22, 20 to 23, 20 to 24, 20 to 25, 20 to 26, 20 to 27, 20 to 28, 20 to 29, 20 to 30, 21 to 22, 21 to 23, 21 to 24, 21 to 25, 21 to 26, 21 to 27, 21 to 28, 21 to 29, 21 to 30, 22 to 23, 22 to 24, 22 to 25, 22 to 26, 22 to 27, 22 to 28, 22 to 29, 22 to 30, 23 to 24, 23 to 25, 23 to 26, 23 to 27, 23 to 28, 23 to 29, 23 to 30, 24 to 25, 24 to 26, 24 to 27, 24 to 28, 24 to 29, 24 to 30, 25 to 26, 25 to 27, 25 to 28, 25 to 29, 25 to 30, 26 to 27, 26 to 28, 26 to 29, 26 to 30, 27 to 28, 27 to 29, 27 to 30, 28 to 29, 28 to 30, or 29 to 30 linked nucleosides. In certain embodiments, oligonucleotides (including modified oligonucleotides) consist of 18 linked nucleosides. In certain embodiments, oligonucleotides (including modified oligonucleotides) consist of 20 linked nucleosides. D. Certain Modified Oligonucleotides In certain embodiments, the above modifications (sugar, nucleobase, internucleoside linkage) are incorporated into a modified oligonucleotide. In certain embodiments, modified oligonucleotides are characterized by their modification motifs and overall lengths. In certain embodiments, such parameters are each independent of one another. Thus, unless otherwise indicated, each internucleoside linkage of an oligonucleotide having a gapmer sugar motif may be modified or unmodified and may or may not follow the gapmer modification pattern of the sugar modifications. For example, the internucleoside linkages within the wing regions of a sugar gapmer may be the same or different from one another and may be the same or different from the internucleoside linkages of the gap region of the sugar motif. Likewise, such sugar gapmer oligonucleotides may comprise one or more modified nucleobase independent of the gapmer pattern of the sugar modifications. Unless otherwise indicated, all modifications are independent of nucleobase sequence. E. Certain Populations of Modified Oligonucleotides Populations of modified oligonucleotides in which all of the modified oligonucleotides of the population have the same molecular formula can be stereorandom populations or chirally enriched populations. All of the chiral centers of all of the modified oligonucleotides are stereorandom in a stereorandom population. In a chirally enriched population, at least one particular chiral center is not stereorandom in the modified oligonucleotides of the population. In certain embodiments, the modified oligonucleotides of a chirally enriched population are enriched for β-D ribosyl sugar moieties, and all of the phosphorothioate internucleoside linkages are stereorandom. In certain embodiments, the modified oligonucleotides of a chirally enriched population are enriched for both β-D ribosyl sugar moieties and at least one, particular phosphorothioate internucleoside linkage in a particular stereochemical configuration. F. Nucleobase Sequence In certain embodiments, oligonucleotides (unmodified or modified oligonucleotides) are further described by their nucleobase sequence. In certain embodiments oligonucleotides have a nucleobase sequence that is complementary to a second oligonucleotide or an identified reference nucleic acid, such as a target nucleic acid. In certain such embodiments, a region of an oligonucleotide has a nucleobase sequence that is complementary to a second oligonucleotide or an identified reference nucleic acid, such as a target nucleic acid. In certain embodiments, the nucleobase sequence of a region or entire length of an oligonucleotide is at least 50%, at least 60%, at least 70%, at least 80%, at least 85%, at least 90%, at least 95%, or 100% complementary to the second oligonucleotide or nucleic acid, such as a target nucleic acid. II. Certain Oligomeric Compounds In certain embodiments, provided herein are oligomeric compounds, which consist of an oligonucleotide (modified or unmodified) and optionally one or more conjugate groups and/or terminal groups. Conjugate groups consist of one or more conjugate moiety and a conjugate linker which links the conjugate moiety to the oligonucleotide. Conjugate groups may be attached to either or both ends of an oligonucleotide and/or at any internal position. In certain embodiments, conjugate groups are attached to the 2'-position of a nucleoside of a modified oligonucleotide. In certain embodiments, conjugate groups that are attached to either or both ends of an oligonucleotide are terminal groups. In certain such embodiments, conjugate groups or terminal groups are attached at the 3’ and/or 5’-end of oligonucleotides. In certain such embodiments, conjugate groups (or terminal groups) are attached at the 3’-end of oligonucleotides. In certain embodiments, conjugate groups are attached near the 3’-end of oligonucleotides. In certain embodiments, conjugate groups (or terminal groups) are attached at the 5’-end of oligonucleotides. In certain embodiments, conjugate groups are attached near the 5’-end of oligonucleotides. A. Certain Conjugate Groups In certain embodiments, oligonucleotides are covalently attached to one or more conjugate groups. In certain embodiments, conjugate groups modify one or more properties of the attached oligonucleotide, including but not limited to pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics, stability, binding, absorption, tissue distribution, cellular distribution, cellular uptake, charge and clearance. In certain embodiments, conjugation of one or more carbohydrate moieties to a modified oligonucleotide can alter one or more properties of the modified oligonucleotide. In certain embodiments, the carbohydrate moiety is attached to a modified subunit of the modified oligonucleotide. For example, the ribose sugar of one or more ribonucleotide subunits of a modified oligonucleotide can be replaced with another moiety, e.g., a non-carbohydrate (preferably cyclic) carrier to which is attached a carbohydrate ligand. A ribonucleotide subunit in which the ribose sugar of the subunit has been so replaced is referred to herein as a ribose replacement modification subunit (RRMS), which is a modified sugar moiety. A cyclic carrier may be a carbocyclic ring system, i.e., one or more ring atoms may be a heteroatom, e.g., nitrogen, oxygen, sulphur. The cyclic carrier may be a monocyclic ring system, or may contain two or more rings, e.g., fused rings. The cyclic carrier may be a fully saturated ring system, or it may contain one or more double bonds. In certain embodiments, the modified oligonucleotide is a gapmer. In certain embodiments, conjugate groups impart a new property on the attached oligonucleotide, e.g., fluorophores or reporter groups that enable detection of the oligonucleotide.

Conjugate Linkers Conjugate moieties are attached to oligonucleotides through conjugate linkers. In certain oligomeric compounds, the conjugate linker is a single chemical bond (i.e., the conjugate moiety is attached directly to an oligonucleotide through a single bond). In certain embodiments, the conjugate linker comprises a chain structure, such as a hydrocarbyl chain, or an oligomer of repeating units such as ethylene glycol, nucleosides, or amino acid units. In certain embodiments, a conjugate linker comprises pyrrolidine. In certain embodiments, a conjugate linker comprises one or more groups selected from alkyl, amino, oxo, amide, disulfide, polyethylene glycol, ether, thioether, and hydroxylamino. In certain such embodiments, the conjugate linker comprises groups selected from alkyl, amino, oxo, amide and ether groups. In certain embodiments, the conjugate linker comprises groups selected from alkyl and amide groups. In certain embodiments, the conjugate linker comprises groups selected from alkyl and ether groups. In certain embodiments, the conjugate linker comprises at least one phosphorus moiety. In certain embodiments, the conjugate linker comprises at least one phosphate group. In certain embodiments, the conjugate linker includes at least one neutral linking group. In certain embodiments, conjugate linkers, including the conjugate linkers described above, are bifunctional linking moieties, e.g., those known in the art to be useful for attaching conjugate groups to compounds, such as the oligonucleotides provided herein. In general, a bifunctional linking moiety comprises at least two functional groups. One of the functional groups is selected to bind to a particular site on a compound and the other is selected to bind to a conjugate group. Examples of functional groups used in a bifunctional linking moiety include but are not limited to electrophiles for reacting with nucleophilic groups and nucleophiles for reacting with electrophilic groups. In certain embodiments, bifunctional linking moieties comprise one or more groups selected from amino, hydroxyl, carboxylic acid, thiol, alkyl, alkenyl, and alkynyl. Examples of conjugate linkers include but are not limited to pyrrolidine, 8-amino-3,6-dioxaoctanoic acid (ADO), succinimidyl 4-(N-maleimidomethyl) cyclohexane-1-carboxylate (SMCC) and 6-aminohexanoic acid (AHEX or AHA). Other conjugate linkers include but are not limited to substituted or unsubstituted C1-C10 alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted C2-C10 alkenyl or substituted or unsubstituted C2-C10 alkynyl, wherein a nonlimiting list of preferred substituent groups includes hydroxyl, amino, alkoxy, carboxy, benzyl, phenyl, nitro, thiol, thioalkoxy, halogen, alkyl, aryl, alkenyl and alkynyl. In certain embodiments, conjugate linkers comprise 1-10 linker-nucleosides. In certain embodiments, conjugate linkers comprise 1-5 linker-nucleosides. In certain embodiments, conjugate linkers comprise 1-3 linker- nucleosides. In certain embodiments, conjugate linkers comprise exactly 3 linker-nucleosides. In certain embodiments, conjugate linkers comprise the TCA motif. In certain embodiments, such linker-nucleosides are modified nucleosides. In certain embodiments such linker-nucleosides comprise a modified sugar moiety. In certain embodiments, linker- nucleosides are unmodified. In certain embodiments, linker-nucleosides comprise an optionally protected heterocyclic base selected from a purine, substituted purine, pyrimidine or substituted pyrimidine. In certain embodiments, a cleavable moiety is a nucleoside selected from uracil, thymine, cytosine, 4-N-benzoylcytosine, 5-methylcytosine, 4-N- benzoyl-5-methylcytosine, adenine, 6-N-benzoyladenine, guanine and 2-N-isobutyrylguanine. It is typically desirable for linker-nucleosides to be cleaved from the oligomeric compound after it reaches a target tissue. Accordingly, linker- nucleosides are typically linked to one another and to the remainder of the oligomeric compound through cleavable bonds. In certain embodiments, such cleavable bonds are phosphodiester bonds. Herein, linker-nucleosides are not considered to be part of the oligonucleotide. Accordingly, in embodiments in which an oligomeric compound comprises an oligonucleotide consisting of a specified number or range of linked nucleosides and/or a specified percent complementarity to a reference nucleic acid and the oligomeric compound also comprises a conjugate group comprising a conjugate linker comprising linker-nucleosides, those linker-nucleosides are not counted toward the length of the oligonucleotide and are not used in determining the percent complementarity of the oligonucleotide for the reference nucleic acid. For example, an oligomeric compound may comprise (1) a modified oligonucleotide consisting of 8-30 nucleosides and (2) a conjugate group comprising 1-10 linker-nucleosides that are contiguous with the nucleosides of the modified oligonucleotide. The total number of contiguous linked nucleosides in such an oligomeric compound is more than 30. Alternatively, an oligomeric compound may comprise a modified oligonucleotide consisting of 8-30 nucleosides and no conjugate group. The total number of contiguous linked nucleosides in such an oligomeric compound is no more than 30. Unless otherwise indicated conjugate linkers comprise no more than 10 linker-nucleosides. In certain embodiments, conjugate linkers comprise no more than 5 linker- nucleosides. In certain embodiments, conjugate linkers comprise no more than 3 linker-nucleosides. In certain embodiments, conjugate linkers comprise no more than 2 linker-nucleosides. In certain embodiments, conjugate linkers comprise no more than 1 linker-nucleoside. In certain embodiments, it is desirable for a conjugate group to be cleaved from the oligonucleotide. For example, in certain circumstances oligomeric compounds comprising a particular conjugate moiety are better taken up by a particular cell type, but once the oligomeric compound has been taken up, it is desirable that the conjugate group be cleaved to release the unconjugated or parent oligonucleotide. Thus, certain conjugate linkers may comprise one or more cleavable moieties. In certain embodiments, a cleavable moiety is a cleavable bond. In certain embodiments, a cleavable moiety is a group of atoms comprising at least one cleavable bond. In certain embodiments, a cleavable moiety comprises a group of atoms having one, two, three, four, or more than four cleavable bonds. In certain embodiments, a cleavable moiety is selectively cleaved inside a cell or subcellular compartment, such as a lysosome. In certain embodiments, a cleavable moiety is selectively cleaved by endogenous enzymes, such as nucleases. In certain embodiments, a cleavable bond is selected from an amide, an ester, an ether, one or both esters of a phosphodiester, a phosphate ester, a carbamate, and a disulfide. In certain embodiments, a cleavable bond is one or both of the esters of a phosphodiester. In certain embodiments, a cleavable moiety comprises a phosphate or phosphodiester. In certain embodiments, the cleavable moiety is a phosphate linkage between an oligonucleotide and a conjugate moiety or conjugate group. In certain embodiments, a cleavable moiety comprises or consists of one or more linker-nucleosides. In certain such embodiments, the one or more linker-nucleosides are linked to one another and/or to the remainder of the oligomeric compound through cleavable bonds. In certain embodiments, such cleavable bonds are unmodified phosphodiester bonds. In certain embodiments, a cleavable moiety is 2'-deoxynucleoside that is attached to either the 3' or 5'-terminal nucleoside of an oligonucleotide by a phosphate internucleoside linkage and covalently attached to the remainder of the conjugate linker or conjugate moiety by a phosphate or phosphorothioate linkage. In certain such embodiments, the cleavable moiety is 2'-deoxyadenosine. 3. Cell-Targeting Moieties In certain embodiments, a conjugate group comprises a cell-targeting moiety. In certain embodiments, a conjugate group has the general formula: wherein n is from 1 to 3, m is 0 when n is 1, m is 1 when n is 2 or greater, j is 1 or 0, and k is 1 or 0. In certain embodiments, n is 1, j is 1 and k is 0. In certain embodiments, n is 1, j is 0 and k is 1. In certain embodiments, n is 1, j is 1 and k is 1. In certain embodiments, n is 2, j is 1 and k is 0. In certain embodiments, n is 2, j is 0 and k is 1. In certain embodiments, n is 2, j is 1 and k is 1. In certain embodiments, n is 3, j is 1 and k is 0. In certain embodiments, n is 3, j is 0 and k is 1. In certain embodiments, n is 3, j is 1 and k is 1.

In certain embodiments, a conjugate group described herein comprises an anti-TfR1 antibody or fragment thereof. In certain embodiments, the conjugate group comprises a protein or peptide capable of binding TfR1. In certain embodiments, the conjugate group comprises an aptamer capable of binding TfR1.

In certain embodiments, a fragment of an anti-TfR1 antibody is F(ab')2, Fab, Fab', Fv, or scFv. In certain embodiments, the conjugate group comprises a protein or peptide capable of binding TfR1. In certain embodiments, the protein or peptide capable of binding TfR1 can be any known in the art including but not limited to those described in WO 2019/140050; WO 2020/037150; WO 2020/124032; and U.S.10,138,483. In certain embodiments, the conjugate group comprises an aptamer capable of binding TfR1. In certain embodiments, the aptamer capable of binding TfR1 can be any known in the art including but not limited to those described in WO 2013/163303; WO 2019/033051; and WO 2020/245198. B. Certain Terminal Groups In certain embodiments, oligomeric compounds comprise one or more terminal groups. Examples of terminal groups include but are not limited to conjugate groups, capping groups, phosphate moieties, protecting groups, modified or unmodified nucleosides, and two or more nucleosides that are independently modified or unmodified. In some embodiments, oligomeric compounds comprise a stabilized 5’-phosphate. Stabilized 5’-phosphates include, but are not limited to 5’-phosphonates, including, but not limited to 5’-vinylphosphonates. In certain embodiments, terminal groups comprise one or more abasic sugar moieties and/or inverted nucleosides. In certain embodiments, terminal groups comprise one or more 2’-linked nucleosides or sugar moieties. In certain such embodiments, the 2’-linked group is an abasic sugar moiety. III. Antisense Activity In certain embodiments, oligomeric compounds and oligomeric duplexes are capable of hybridizing to a target nucleic acid, resulting in at least one antisense activity; such oligomeric compounds and oligomeric duplexes are antisense agents. In certain embodiments, antisense agents have antisense activity when they reduce or inhibit the amount or activity of a target nucleic acid by 25% or more in the standard cell assay. In certain embodiments, antisense agents selectively affect one or more target nucleic acid. Such antisense agents comprise a nucleobase sequence that hybridizes to one or more target nucleic acid, resulting in one or more desired antisense activity and does not hybridize to one or more non-target nucleic acid or does not hybridize to one or more non-target nucleic acid in such a way that results in significant undesired antisense activity. In certain antisense activities, hybridization of an antisense agents or a portion of an antisense agent to a target nucleic acid results in recruitment of a protein that cleaves the target nucleic acid. For example, certain antisense agents result in RNase H mediated cleavage of the target nucleic acid. RNase H is a cellular endonuclease that cleaves the RNA strand of an RNA:DNA duplex. The DNA in such an RNA:DNA duplex need not be unmodified DNA. In certain embodiments, described herein are antisense agents comprising antisense oligomeric compounds comprising antisense oligonucleotidesthat are sufficiently “DNA-like” to elicit RNase H activity. In certain embodiments, one or more non- DNA-like nucleoside in the gap of a gapmer is tolerated. In certain antisense activities, an antisense agent or a portion of an antisense agent is loaded into an RNA- induced silencing complex (RISC), ultimately resulting in cleavage of the target nucleic acid. For example, certain antisense agents result in cleavage of the target nucleic acid by Argonaute. Antisense agents that are loaded into RISC are RNAi agents. RNAi agents may be double-stranded (siRNA or dsRNAi) or single-stranded (ssRNAi). In certain embodiments, hybridization of an antisense agent or portion thereof to a target nucleic acid does not result in recruitment of a protein that cleaves that target nucleic acid. In certain embodiments, hybridization of the antisense agent or portion thereof to the target nucleic acid results in alteration of splicing of the target nucleic acid. In certain embodiments, hybridization of an antisense agent or a portion thereof to a target nucleic acid results in inhibition of a binding interaction between the target nucleic acid and a protein or other nucleic acid. In certain embodiments, hybridization of an antisense agent or a portion thereof to a target nucleic acid results in alteration of translation of the target nucleic acid. Antisense activities may be observed directly or indirectly. In certain embodiments, observation or detection of an antisense activity involves observation or detection of a change in an amount of a target nucleic acid or protein encoded by such target nucleic acid, a change in the ratio of splice variants of a nucleic acid or protein and/or a phenotypic change in a cell or animal. IV. Certain Target Nucleic Acids In certain embodiments, oligomeric compounds comprise or consist of an oligonucleotide comprising a region that is complementary to a target nucleic acid. In certain embodiments, the target nucleic acid is an endogenous RNA molecule. In certain embodiments, the target nucleic acid encodes a protein. In certain such embodiments, the target nucleic acid is selected from: a mature mRNA and a pre-mRNA, including intronic, exonic and untranslated regions. In certain embodiments, the target RNA is a mature mRNA. In certain embodiments, the target nucleic acid is a pre- mRNA. In certain embodiments, the target region is entirely within an intron. In certain embodiments, the target region spans an intron/exon junction. In certain embodiments, the target region is at least 50% within an intron. In certain embodiments, the target nucleic acid is a non-coding RNA. In certain embodiments, the target non-coding RNA is selected from: a long non-coding RNA, a short non-coding RNA, an intronic RNA molecule. A. Complementarity/Mismatches to the Target Nucleic Acid and Duplex Complementarity In certain embodiments, oligonucleotides are complementary to the target nucleic acid over the entire length of the oligonucleotide. In certain embodiments, oligonucleotides are 99%, 95%, 90%, 85%, or 80% complementary to the target nucleic acid. In certain embodiments, oligonucleotides are at least 80% complementary to the target nucleic acid over the entire length of the oligonucleotide and comprise a region that is 100% or fully complementary to a target nucleic acid. In certain embodiments, the region of full complementarity is from 6 to 20, 10 to 18, or 18 to 20 nucleobases in length. It is possible to introduce mismatch bases without eliminating activity. For example, Gautschi et al (J. Natl. Cancer Inst. 93:463-471, March 2001) demonstrated the ability of an oligonucleotide having 100% complementarity to the bcl-2 mRNA and having 3 mismatches to the bcl-xL mRNA to reduce the expression of both bcl-2 and bcl-xL in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, this oligonucleotide demonstrated potent anti-tumor activity in vivo. Maher and Dolnick (Nuc. Acid. Res. 16:3341-3358, 1988) tested a series of tandem 14 nucleobase oligonucleotides, and 28 and 42 nucleobase oligonucleotides comprised of the sequence of two or three of the tandem oligonucleotides, respectively, for their ability to arrest translation of human DHFR in a rabbit reticulocyte assay. Each of the three 14 nucleobase oligonucleotides alone was able to inhibit translation, albeit at a more modest level than the 28 or 42 nucleobase oligonucleotides. In certain embodiments, oligonucleotides comprise one or more mismatched nucleobases relative to the target nucleic acid. In certain embodiments, antisense activity against the target is reduced by such mismatch, but activity against a non-target is reduced by a greater amount. Thus, in certain embodiments selectivity of the oligonucleotide is improved. In certain embodiments, the mismatch is specifically positioned within an oligonucleotide having a gapmer motif. In certain embodiments, the mismatch is at position 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8 from the 5’-end of the gap region. In certain embodiments, the mismatch is at position 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 from the 3’-end of the gap region. In certain embodiments, the mismatch is at position 1, 2, 3, or 4 from the 5’-end of the wing region. In certain embodiments, the mismatch is at position 4, 3, 2, or 1 from the 3’-end of the wing region. B.

The proportions of such co-solvent systems may be varied considerably without significantly altering their solubility and toxicity characteristics. Furthermore, the identity of co-solvent components may be varied: for example, other surfactants may be used instead of Polysorbate 80™; the fraction size of polyethylene glycol may be varied; other biocompatible polymers may replace polyethylene glycol, e.g., polyvinyl pyrrolidone; and other sugars or polysaccharides may substitute for dextrose. In certain embodiments, pharmaceutical compositions are prepared for oral administration. In certain embodiments, pharmaceutical compositions are prepared for buccal administration. In certain embodiments, a pharmaceutical composition is prepared for administration by injection (e.g., intravenous, subcutaneous, intramuscular, intrathecal (IT), intracerebroventricular (ICV), etc.). In certain of such embodiments, a pharmaceutical composition comprises a carrier and is formulated in an aqueous solution, such as water or a physiologically compatible buffer such as Hanks's solution, Ringer's solution, or physiological saline buffer. In certain embodiments, other ingredients are included (e.g., ingredients that aid in solubility or serve as preservatives). In certain embodiments, injectable suspensions are prepared using appropriate liquid carriers, suspending agents and the like. Certain pharmaceutical compositions for injection are presented in unit dosage form, e.g., in ampoules or in multi-dose containers. Certain pharmaceutical compositions for injection are suspensions, solutions or emulsions in oily or aqueous vehicles, and may contain formulatory agents such as suspending, stabilizing and/or dispersing agents. Certain solvents suitable for use in pharmaceutical compositions for injection include, but are not limited to, lipophilic solvents and fatty oils, such as sesame oil, synthetic fatty acid esters, such as ethyl oleate or triglycerides, and liposomes. Under certain conditions, certain compounds disclosed herein act as acids. Although such compounds may be drawn or described in protonated (free acid) form, or ionized and in association with a cation (salt) form, aqueous solutions of such compounds exist in equilibrium among such forms. For example, a phosphate linkage of an oligonucleotide in aqueous solution exists in equilibrium among free acid, anion and salt forms. Unless otherwise indicated, compounds described herein are intended to include all such forms. Moreover, certain oligonucleotides have several such linkages, each of which is in equilibrium. Thus, oligonucleotides in solution exist in an ensemble of forms at multiple positions all at equilibrium. The term “oligonucleotide” is intended to include all such forms. Drawn structures necessarily depict a single form. Nevertheless, unless otherwise indicated, such drawings are likewise intended to include corresponding forms. Herein, a structure depicting the free acid of a compound followed by the term “or salt thereof” or “or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof” expressly includes all such forms that may be fully or partially protonated/de-protonated/in association with a cation or a combination of cations. In certain embodiments, one or more specific cation is identified. The cations include, but are not limited to, sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium. In certain embodiments, a structure depicting the free acid of a compound followed by the term “or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof” expressly includes all such forms that may be fully or partially protonated/de- protonated/in association with one or more cations selected from sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium. In certain embodiments, modified oligonucleotides or oligomeric compounds are in aqueous solution with sodium. In certain embodiments, modified oligonucleotides or oligomeric compounds are in PBS. In certain embodiments, modified oligonucleotides or oligomeric compounds are in water. In certain such embodiments, the pH of the solution is adjusted with NaOH and/or HCl to achieve a desired pH. Herein, certain specific doses are described. A dose may be in the form of a dosage unit. For clarity, a dose (or dosage unit) of a modified oligonucleotide or oligomeric compound in milligrams indicates the mass of the free acid form of the modified oligonucleotide or oligomeric compound. As described above, in aqueous solution, the free acid is in equilibrium with anionic and salt forms. However, for the purpose of calculating dose, it is assumed that the modified oligonucleotide or oligomeric compound exists as a solvent-free, sodium-acetate free, anhydrous, free acid. For example, where a modified oligonucleotide or an oligomeric compound is in solution comprising sodium (e.g., saline), the modified oligonucleotide or oligomeric compound may be partially or fully de-protonated and in association with sodium ions. However, the mass of the protons is nevertheless counted toward the weight of the dose, and the mass of the sodium ions is not counted toward the weight of the dose. Thus, for example, a dose, or dosage unit, of 10 mg of Compound No.1435454 equals the number of fully protonated molecules that weighs 10 mg. This would be equivalent to 10.59 mg of solvent-free, sodium acetate-free, anhydrous sodiated Compound No.1435454. In certain embodiments, where a modified oligonucleotide or oligomeric compound is in a solution, such as aCSF, comprising sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium, the modified oligonucleotide or oligomeric compound may be partially or fully de-protonated and in association with sodium, potassium, calcium, and/or magnesium. However, the mass of the protons is nevertheless counted toward the weight of the dose, and the mass of the sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium ions is not counted toward the weight of the dose. In certain embodiments, when an oligomeric compound comprises a conjugate group, the mass of the conjugate group is included in calculating the dose of such oligomeric compound. If the conjugate group also has an acid, the conjugate group is likewise assumed to be fully protonated for the purpose of calculating dose. VI. Certain Hotspot Regions 1.

Nonlimiting disclosure and incorporation by reference Each of the literature and patent publications listed herein is incorporated by reference in its entirety. While certain compounds, compositions and methods described herein have been described with specificity in accordance with certain embodiments, the following examples serve only to illustrate the compounds described herein and are not intended to limit the same. Each of the references, GenBank accession numbers, and the like recited in the present application is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. Herein, the description of compounds as having “the nucleobase sequence of” a SEQ ID NO describes only the nucleobase sequence. Accordingly, absent additional description, such description of compounds by reference to a nucleobase sequence of a SEQ ID NO does not limit sugar or internucleoside linkage modifications or presence or absence of additional substituents such as a conjugate group. Further, absent additional description, the nucleobases of a compound “having the nucleobase sequence of” a SEQ ID NO include such compounds having modified forms of the identified nucleobases as described herein. The sequence listing accompanying this filing identifies each sequence as either “RNA” or “DNA” as required; however one of skill in the art will readily appreciate that such designation as “RNA” or “DNA” to describe modified oligonucleotides is, in certain instances, arbitrary. For example, an oligonucleotide comprising a nucleoside comprising a 2’-OH sugar moiety and a thymine base could be described as a DNA having a modified sugar moiety (2’-OH in place of one 2’-H of DNA) or as an RNA having a modified base (thymine (methylated uracil) in place of a uracil of RNA); and certain nucleic acid compounds described herein comprise one or more nucleosides comprising modified sugar moieties having 2’-substituent(s) that are neither OH nor H. One of skill in the art will readily appreciate that labeling such nucleic acid compounds “RNA” or “DNA” does not alter or limit the description of such nucleic acid compounds. Accordingly, nucleic acid sequences provided herein, including, but not limited to those in the sequence listing, are intended to encompass nucleic acids containing any combination of natural or modified RNA and/or DNA, unless otherwise stated, including, but not limited to such nucleic acids having modified nucleobases. By way of further example and without limitation, an oligomeric compound having the nucleobase sequence “ATCGATCG” encompasses any oligomeric compounds having such nucleobase sequence, whether modified or unmodified, including, but not limited to, such compounds comprising RNA bases, such as those having sequence “AUCGAUCG” and those having some DNA bases and some RNA bases such as “AUCGATCG” and oligomeric compounds having other modified nucleobases, such as “ATmCGAUCG,” wherein mC indicates a cytosine base comprising a methyl group at the 5- position. Finally, for clarity, unless otherwise indicated, the phrase “nucleobase sequence of SEQ ID NO: X”, refers only to the sequence of nucleobases in that SEQ ID NO.: X, independent of any sugar or internucleoside linkage modifications also described in such SEQ ID. Certain compounds described herein (e.g., modified oligonucleotides) have one or more asymmetric center and thus give rise to enantiomers, diastereomers, and other stereoisomeric configurations that may be defined, in terms of absolute stereochemistry, as (R) or (S), as α or β such as for sugar anomers, or as (D) or (L), such as for amino acids, etc. Compounds provided herein that are drawn or described as having certain stereoisomeric configurations include only the indicated compounds. Compounds provided herein that are drawn or described with undefined stereochemistry include all such possible isomers, including their stereorandom and optically pure forms, unless specified otherwise. Likewise, all cis- and trans-isomers and tautomeric forms of the compounds herein are also included unless otherwise indicated. Oligomeric compounds described herein include chirally pure or enriched mixtures as well as racemic mixtures. For example, oligomeric compounds having a plurality of phosphorothioate internucleoside linkages include such compounds in which chirality of the phosphorothioate internucleoside linkages is controlled or is random. Unless otherwise indicated, compounds described herein are intended to include corresponding salt forms. Herein, the description of compounds by chemical notation (subscripts and/or superscripts to indicate chemical modifications) without reference to a specific Compound No. include only each noted modification, but may include additional substituents, such as a conjugate group, unless otherwise indicated. For example, the chemical notation of “AesTko mCezGdsC” indicates a compound wherein the first nucleoside comprises a 2’-MOE sugar moiety (indicated by the “e” subscript) and an unmodified adenine nucleobase linked to the second nucleoside via a phosphorothioate linkage (indicated by the “s” subscript); the second nucleoside comprises a cEt sugar moiety (indicated by the “k” subscript) and an unmodified thymine nucleobase linked to the third nucleoside via a phosphodiester linkage (indicated by the “o” subscript); the third nucleoside comprises a 2’-MOE sugar moiety and a 5-methyl modified cytosine nucleobase (indicated by the “m” superscript) linked to the fourth nucleoside via a mesylphosphoramidate linkage (indicated by the “z” subscript); the fourth nucleoside comprises a 2’-β-D-deoxyribosyl sugar moiety (indicated by the “d” subscript) and an unmodified guanine nucleobase linked to the fifth nucleoside with a phosphorothioate linkage; and the fifth nucleoside comprises a 2’-β-D-deoxyribosyl sugar moiety and an unmodified cytosine nucleobase; and the compound may include additional substituents, such as a conjugate group. Herein, where a specific compound (e.g., with reference to a Compound No.) is described (as in the examples) by chemical notation, each nucleobase, sugar, and internucleoside linkage of such specific compound is modified only as indicated. Accordingly, in the context of a description of a specific compound having a particular Compound No., “AesTko mCezGdsC” indicates a compound wherein the first nucleoside comprises a 2’-MOE sugar moiety (indicated by the “e” subscript) and an unmodified adenine nucleobase linked to the second nucleoside via a phosphorothioate linkage (indicated by the “s” subscript); the second nucleoside comprises a cEt sugar moiety (indicated by the “k” subscript) and an unmodified thymine nucleobase linked to the third nucleoside via a phosphodiester linkage (indicated by the “o” subscript); the third nucleoside comprises a 2’-MOE sugar moiety and a 5-methyl modified cytosine nucleobase (indicated by the “m” superscript) linked to the fourth nucleoside via a mesylphosphoramidate linkage (indicated by the “z” subscript); the fourth nucleoside comprises a 2’-β-D-deoxyribosyl sugar moiety (indicated by the “d” subscript) and an unmodified guanine nucleobase linked to the fifth nucleoside with a phosphorothioate linkage; and the fifth nucleoside comprises a 2’-β-D-deoxyribosyl sugar moiety and an unmodified cytosine nucleobase; and the compound does not include additional substituents. Herein, sugar, internucleoside linkage, and nucleobase modifications may be indicated within a nucleotide or nucleobase sequence (e.g., by superscript or subscript, as shown above) or may be indicated in text accompanying a sequence (e.g., in separate text that appears within or above or below a table of compounds). Where a specific compound is described herein by way of a drawn chemical structure, each nucleobase, sugar, and internucleoside linkage of such a specific compound includes only the modifications indicated in the drawn chemical structure. One of skill will appreciate, however, that drawn compounds may exist in equilibrium between tautomeric forms and/or as salts in equilibrium with protonated or ionic forms. Drawn structures are intended to capture all such forms of such compounds. While effort has been made to accurately describe compounds in the accompanying sequence listing, should there be any discrepancies between a description in this specification and in the accompanying sequence listing, the description in the specification and not in the sequence listing is the accurate description. The compounds described herein include variations in which one or more atoms are replaced with a non- radioactive isotope or radioactive isotope of the indicated element. For example, compounds herein that comprise hydrogen atoms encompass all possible deuterium substitutions for each of the 1H hydrogen atoms. Isotopic substitutions encompassed by the compounds herein include but are not limited to: 2H or 3H in place of 1H, 13C or 14C in place of 12C, 15N in place of 14N, 17O or 18O in place of 16O, and 33S, 34S, 35S, or 36S in place of 32S. In certain embodiments, non-radioactive isotopic substitutions may impart new properties on the oligomeric compound that are beneficial for use as a therapeutic or research tool. In certain embodiments, radioactive isotopic substitutions may make the compound suitable for research or diagnostic purposes such as imaging. EXAMPLES The following examples illustrate certain embodiments of the present disclosure and are not limiting. Moreover, where specific embodiments are provided, the inventors have contemplated generic application of those specific embodiments. For example, disclosure of an oligonucleotide having a particular motif provides reasonable support for additional oligonucleotides having the same or similar motif. And, for example, where a particular high- affinity modification appears at a particular position, other high-affinity modifications at the same position are considered suitable, unless otherwise indicated. Example 1: Effect of 5-10-5 MOE gapmers complementary to human MECP2 RNA in vitro, single dose Modified oligonucleotides complementary to a human MECP2 nucleic acid were designed and tested for their single dose effects on MECP2 RNA in vitro. The modified oligonucleotides were tested in a series of experiments that had the same culture conditions. The modified oligonucleotides in the tables below are 5-10-5 MOE gapmers with mixed PO/PS linkages. The modified oligonucleotides in the tables below are 20 nucleosides in length, wherein the sugar motif for the modified oligonucleotides is (from 5’ to 3’): eeeeeddddddddddeeeee; wherein each “e” represents a 2’-MOE ribosyl sugar moiety and each “d” represents a 2’-β-D-deoxyribosyl sugar moiety. The internucleoside linkage motif for the modified oligonucleotides is (from 5’ to 3’): soooossssssssssooss; wherein each “s” represents a phosphorothioate internucleoside linkage, and each “o” represents a phosphodiester linkage. Each cytosine residue is a 5-methylcytosine. Each modified oligonucleotide listed in the tables below is 100% complementary to SEQ ID NO: 1 (the complement of GenBank Accession No. NC_000023.11 truncated from nucleosides 154019001 to 154101000), to SEQ ID NO: 2 (GenBank Accession No. NM_004992.3), or to both. “Start site” indicates the 5’-most nucleoside to which the modified oligonucleotide is complementary in the target nucleic acid sequence. “Stop site” indicates the 3’-most nucleoside to which the modified oligonucleotide is complementary in the target nucleic acid sequence. ‘N/A’ indicates that the modified oligonucleotide is not 100% complementary to that particular target nucleic acid sequence. A431 cells were treated with modified oligonucleotide at a concentration of 4,000 nM by free uptake at a density of 10,000 cells per well. After a treatment period of approximately 48 hours, total RNA was isolated from the cells and MECP2 RNA levels were measured by quantitative real-time RT-PCR. MECP2 RNA levels were measured by human primer-probe set RTS37209 (forward sequence CAAGGCCAAACAGAGAGGA, designated herein as SEQ ID NO: 3; reverse sequence TTGTCAGAGCCCTACCCATA, designated herein as SEQ ID NO: 4; probe sequence AGAATAAAGGCAGCTGTTGTCTCTTCTCC, designated herein as SEQ ID NO: 5). MECP2 RNA levels were normalized to total RNA content, as measured by RIBOGREEN®. Reduction of MECP2 RNA is presented in the tables below as percent MECP2 RNA relative to the amount of MECP2 RNA in untreated control cells (% UTC). The values marked with a “†” indicate that the modified oligonucleotide is complementary to the amplicon region of the primer probe set. Additional assays may be used to measure the potency and efficacy of the modified oligonucleotides complementary to the amplicon region. Each separate experiment described in this example is identified by an Assay Identification letter in the table column labeled “AID”.
