Product Information

• Name: Tri-b-GalNAcAc3-6-aminoheaxanoate TFA
• Synonyms: Triantennary β-GalNAc (peracetylated) 6-aminoheaxanoate TFA salt tri-beta-GalNAc-6-ACA TFA (peracetylated) Tris-GalNAcAc3-Ahx-TFA
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Tri-b-GalNAc-6-aminohexanoate TFA is the peracetylated TFA salt from MT184237. It is a synthetic ligand designed to target the asialoglycoprotein receptor (ASGPR) on hepatocytes. The three terminal beta-N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) sugars provide an efficient ASGPR binding. It serves as a platform for lysosomal targeting chimera (LYTAC) development, allowing for the creation of chimeras that specifically target unwanted proteins for degradation within hepatocytes. In addition, tri-b-GalNAc-6-aminohexanoate facilitates the delivery of therapeutic cargo, such as RNA or Cas9 complexes, directly to hepatocytes via ASGPR-mediated endocytosis. This approach is promising for gene therapy and RNAi applications in the liver due to the specificity of ASGPR targeting and the versatility of the conjugation moiety.
