GtoPdb Ligand ID: 13631

Synonyms: AD-51547 | ALN-TTRSC
Compound class: Nucleic acid
Comment: Revusiran is a double-stranded small interfering ribonucleic acid (siRNA) class ligand. It is proposed to reduce hepatic transthyretin (TTR) production, as a mechanism to treat hereditary transthyretin-mediated (hATTR) amyloidosis-related cardiomyopathy.
Nucleic acid bases are chemically modified to improve stability and GalNAc-conjugation is used to promote delivery of the drug to the liver [1]- this is annotated as 'R1' in the sequence provided here. We have been unable to locate a full chemical SMILES for the ligand, or its HELM notation.
