NOVEL STABILIZED NUCLEOSIDE PHOSPHATES AND ANALOGUES THEREOF

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0001] This application claims priority from U.S. Provisional Application No. 63/376,579 filed on September 21, 2022, the entire contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety.

FIELD OF INVENTION

[0002] The present disclosure relates generally to the field of chemistry, molecular biology and genetic engineering, including oligonucleotides and nucleic acid moieties and molecules useful for stabilizing oligonucleotides, and the synthesis and use of the oligonucleotides and nucleic acid moieties and molecules.

BACKGROUND

[0003] Efficient gene silencing by RNAi in vivo requires the recognition and binding of the 5’-phosphate of the guide strand of an siRNA by the Argonaute protein. It has been demonstrated that incorporation of a 5’-E-vinyl-phosphonate 5 ’-(E)- VP increases siRNA accumulation, extends duration of silencing, and protects siRNA from 5 ’-3 ’-exonuclease.

ACS Chem. Biol. 2013, 8:7 1402-1406. Structural studies show that the 5’-binding site in the MID domain of human Argonaute-2 (hAgo-2) is able to adjust the key binding residues to compensate for the change introduced by the modified nucleotide. Nucleic Acids Res. 2017, 45:6 3528-3536.

[0004] There still exists a high unmet need for alternatives to 5 ’-(E)- VP.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [0010] Various publications, articles and patents are cited or described in the background and throughout the specification; each of these references is herein incorporated by reference in its entirety. Discussion of documents, acts, materials, devices, articles or the like which has been included in the present specification is for the purpose of providing context for the invention. Such discussion is not an admission that any or all of these matters form part of the prior art with respect to any inventions disclosed or claimed. [0011] Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood to one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. Otherwise, certain terms used herein have the meanings as set in the specification. All patents, published patent applications, and publications cited herein are incorporated by reference as if set forth fully herein. [0012] It must be noted that as used herein and in the appended claims, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” include plural reference unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. [0013] Unless otherwise stated, any numerical value, such as a % sequence identity or a % sequence identity range described herein, are to be understood as being modified in all instances by the term “about.” Thus, a numerical value typically includes ± 10% of the recited value. For example, a dosage of 10 mg includes 9 mg to 11 mg. As used herein, the use of a numerical range expressly includes all possible subranges, all individual numerical values within that range, including integers within such ranges and fractions of the values unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. [0014] As used herein, the conjunctive term “and/or” between multiple recited elements is understood as encompassing both individual and combined options. For instance, where two elements are conjoined by “and/or,” a first option refers to the applicability of the first element without the second. A second option refers to the applicability of the second element without the first. A third option refers to the applicability of the first and second elements together. Any one of these options is understood to fall within the meaning, and therefore satisfy the requirement of the term “and/or” as used herein. Concurrent applicability of more than one of the options is also understood to fall within the meaning, and therefore satisfy the requirement of the term “and/or.” [0015] Unless otherwise indicated, the term “at least” preceding a series of elements is to be understood to refer to every element in the series. Those skilled in the art will recognize or be able to ascertain using no more than routine experimentation, many equivalents to the specific embodiments of the invention described herein. Such equivalents are intended to be encompassed by the invention. [0016] Throughout this specification and the claims which follow, unless the context requires otherwise, the word “comprise,” and variations such as “comprises” and “comprising,” will be understood to imply the inclusion of a stated integer or step or group of integers or steps but not the exclusion of any other integer or step or group of integer or step. When used herein the term “comprising” can be substituted with the term “containing” or “including” or sometimes when used herein with the term “having.” [0017] When used herein “consisting of” excludes any element, step, or ingredient not specified in the claim element. When used herein, “consisting essentially of” does not exclude materials or steps that do not materially affect the basic and novel characteristics of the claim. Any of the aforementioned terms of “comprising,” “containing,” “including,” and “having,” whenever used herein in the context of an aspect or embodiment of the invention can be replaced with the term “consisting of” or “consisting essentially of” to vary scopes of the disclosure.

LCMS method: [00154] CPG (25 umol, 30 mg) with synthesized n-1 oligonucleotide with 5’-DMTr on was placed in a 1 mL syringe provided with a filter and cap. [00155] Step 1. The syringe was filled with 3% dichloroacetic acid in DCM and kept for 20 min at ambient temperature. Solvent was removed and CPG was washed 6 times with 0.6 ml of acetonitrile, 3 times with dry DCM, then dried in vacuum for 30 min. [00156] Step 2. The syringe was filled with 200 uL of 0.1 M solution of phosphonate amidite in dry acetonitrile and 200 uL of 0.25 M 5-(thylthio)-1H-tetrazole solution in acetonitrile. The syringe was tightly closed and left gently shaken for 40 min at the ambient temperature. Solvents were removed and the operation repeated second time. Solvents were removed and CPG was washed with 0.6 ml of acetonitrile 6 times. 0.05 M Solution of iodine in pyridine/water 9:1 (v:v) was added and kept for 15 min, repeated twice. CPG was washed 6 times with 0.6 ml of acetonitrile, 3 times with dry DCM, then dried in vacuum for 30 min. An aliquot of CPG (2 mg) was taken, treated with AMA for 10 min at 60 °C, and MW of the obtained oligo was checked by LCMS. If the coupling was not running up to completion the step 2 was repeated. [00157] Step 3. Dry CPG in the syringe was treated with 250 uL of 3.5% solution of trimethylsilyl iodide in acetonitrile/pyridine 50:1 (v/v) for 20 min at ambient temperature. This treatment was repeated 3 times. Solvent was removed and CPG was washed 6 times with 0.6 ml of acetonitrile, then treated with solution of 4% mercaptoethanol in pyridine/triethylamine 1:1 (v:v) for 20 min at ambient temperature. Solvent was removed and CPG was washed 6 times with 0.6 ml of acetonitrile, 3 times with dry DCM, then dried in vacuum for 30 min. An aliquot of CPG (2 mg) was taken, treated with AMA for 10 min at 60 °C, and MW of the obtained oligo was checked by LCMS. If the deprotection was not running up to completion the step 3 was repeated. [00158] Step 4. CPG in the syringe was treated with 200 uL of AMA for 3h and filtered. Solid support was washed 5 times with 250 uL of water. Filtrate and washings were combined, diluted up to 10 mL and target compound isolated by ion-exchange chromatography. The column GE Source 15Q 250x10 mm. Buffer A was 20 mM sodium phosphate in acetonitrile/water 9:1 (v:v), buffer B was 1.8 M sodium borate in buffer A (pH 7.5). Gradient from 5% to 60% over 10 column volumes was used, target compounds were eluted at 25-35% B. Obtained oligonucleotides were desalted and used for annealing. [00159] Step 5. Annealing was achieved by mixing of equimolar amount of sense and antisense stands. Obtained siRNA were analyzed by LCMS at denaturizing conditions at 80 0 C. Examples of synthesized AS:
