The disclosure provides ionizable amine lipids and salts thereof (e.g., pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof) useful for the delivery of biologically active agents, for example delivering biologically active agents to cells to prepare engineered cells. The ionizable amine lipids disclosed herein are useful as ionizable lipids in the formulation of lipid nanoparticle-based compositions.

The disclosure features novel lipids and compositions involving the same. Nanoparticle compositions include a novel lipid as well as additional lipids such as phospholipids, structural lipids, and PEG lipids. Nanoparticle compositions further including therapeutic and/or prophylactics such as RNA are useful in the delivery of therapeutic and/or prophylactics to mammalian cells or organs to, for example, regulate polypeptide, protein, or gene expression.

Ionizable cationic lipids, methods for synthesizing them, as well as intermediates useful in synthesis of these lipids and methods of synthesizing the intermediates are disclosed. The ionizable cationic lipids are useful as a component of lipid nanoparticles (LNP), which in turn can be used for the delivery of nucleic acids into cells in vivo or ex vivo. LNP compositions are also disclosed, including LNP comprising a functionalized lipid to enable conjugation of a binding moiety, and targeted LNP (tLNP), that is a LNP in which a binding moiety has been conjugated to the functionalized lipid and can serve as a targeting moiety to direct the tLNP to a desired tissue or cell type.
