BIP-20
Instructions for Use
Product information
BiP-20 is a branched ionizable phospholipid identified as a lead compound for efficient hepatic mRNA delivery.BiP-20 is a novel, efficient, and safe liver-targeted LNP delivery vehicle. With an ideal pKa of 6.56, it achieves highly efficient liver targeting and endosomal escape primarily through the ApoE/LDL-R pathway. It demonstrates exceptional performance in gene editing at very low doses: for CRISPR-Cas9-mediated editing of TTR, a 10 μg dose achieved ~64% efficiency, which is 8-fold higher than the clinical benchmark lipid LP-01. In Prime Editing targeting the PCSK9 gene, its efficiency (4.30%) also significantly surpassed that of MC3, SM102, and LPO1. Furthermore, it mediates a 5.9-fold increase in hepatic protein expression compared to MC3. Safety assessments indicate it does not induce liver function abnormalities, showing strong therapeutic potential.

Provided that storage conditions are as stated on the product vial and the vial is kept tightly sealed, the product can be stored for up to 1 year.
Wherever possible, prepare and use solutions on the same day. If stock solutions must be prepared in advance, store them as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be usable for up to one month.
Before use, and prior to opening the vial, allow the product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.
