ALC-0159
Methoxypolyethyleneglycoloxy(2000)-N,N-ditetradecylacetamide
Methoxypolyethyleneglycoloxy(2000)-N,N-ditetradecylacetamide, or ALC-0159, is a methoxypolyethylene glycol (PEG-2000) conjugated lipid and is designed to enhance the stability and biocompatibility of LNP drug delivery systems.
By forming a hydrophilic shield, ALC-0159 significantly reduces immune recognition to increase circulation time and improve bioavailability. As a key component in mRNA-based vaccines, this PEGylated lipid carries out a fundamental function in efficient nanoparticle encapsulation and intracellular delivery. This makes it indispensable in cutting-edge pharmaceutical and gene therapy applications.
Applications
ALC-0159 is a foundational element in LNPs for mRNA-based vaccines, including COVID-19 formulations. It is also vital for stabilizing nanoparticle formulations in nucleic acid and small-molecule drug delivery.
Other notable applications include its ability to improve stability, bioavailability, and reduced immunogenicity in CRISPR, siRNA, and antisense oligonucleotide uses, as well as driving next-generation RNA-based therapies, which enables improved systemic circulation and controlled release.
Packaging
Avanti Research™ provides ALC-0159 in powder (25mg, 50mg, 100mg, 200mg, 500mg, and 1g) for precise, reproducible results.
