The present disclosure relates to cap analogs, which can result in high levels of capping efficiency and transcription and improved translation efficiencies. The present disclosure also relates to methods useful for preparing cap analogs and using mRNA species containing such analogs, as well as kits containing the novel cap analogs.
The present disclosure in part provides compounds (i.e., PEG lipids) which are useful in pharmaceutical compositions, cosmetic compositions, and drug delivery systems, e.g, for use in lipid nanoparticle (LNP) formulations. The present disclosure also provides LNP formulations comprising PEG lipids described herein, and methods of using the same. For example, the LNPs provided herein are useful for the delivery of an agent (e.g, therapeutic agent) to a subject. The PEG lipids and LNPs provided herein, in certain embodiments, exhibit increased PEG shedding compared to existing PEG lipids and LNP formulations.
