Antibody-siRNA conjugate delivery systems can be created by directly conjugating siRNA to various chemical groups within an antibody. Traditional antibody-siRNA conjugates mainly use natural lysine or reduced cysteine residues. CD Formulation offers cost-effective conjugation services and supports large-scale development for global clients.
Antibody-small interfering RNA (siRNA) conjugates (ARCs) combine the specificity of antibodies with siRNA's gene-targeting capabilities. This method uses antibodies for precise targeting and siRNAs for gene silencing, delivering therapeutic payloads to specific cells to inhibit gene expression. ARCs address challenges of inadequate siRNA targeting and limited circulation, offering a promising solution for targeted gene silencing and enhanced therapeutic efficacy.

The antibody-siRNA binding site is selected at the 3' end of the S gene, a region typically designed for specific recognition and binding. In antibody-siRNA synthesis services, the biotin-streptavidin system is commonly employed in the coupling reaction. This chemical coupling reaction leverages the high affinity between biotin and streptavidin to achieve efficient linkage of the antibody to the siRNA, ensuring the stability and functional integrity of the bicomponent throughout the synthesis process.
Items | Descriptions |
---|---|
Chemical Modification | Modifying the terminal ends or sugar-phosphate backbone of siRNAs can enhance stability and reduce immunogenicity. Notable modifications, like 2'-O-methyl and phosphorothioate, improve siRNA nuclease resistance. |
Length Optimization | The length of siRNA is crucial for hybridization stability. An optimal length prevents the formation of unstable secondary structures while ensuring sufficient length to maintain hybridization stability. |
Coupling Strategy Optimization | Utilizing nucleic acid-antibody coupling methods, such as double-stranded hybridization, can enhance binding efficiency. It is essential to employ rapid and highly specific coupling techniques, as these double-stranded hybridization methods exhibit superior kinetic properties. |
Structural Design | Optimize the sequence and structure of the siRNA to prevent interference with the antibody binding site and to ensure the proper spatial conformation that facilitates binding. |
