[0001] OLIGONUCLEOTIDES CONTAINING A LIGAND AT A NUCLEOBASE, 2′ 2 POSITION, OR 3′ POSITION 4 RELATED APPLICATIONS This application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. § 119(e) to U.S. Provisional Application, 6 U.S.S.N.63 / 520,093, filed August 17, 2023, the contents of which are incorporated by reference herein. 8 BACKGROUND 10 In the use of compounds (e.g., oligonucleotides) in therapeutic, prophylactic, or diagnostic applications, it is often desirable that the compounds be delivered to a specific 12 location (for example, to desired cell(s), to a desired organ or tissue, or to a particular location in a subject) to enhance the therapeutic or prophylactic effect or to be advantageous for diagnostic 14 purposes. This is frequently the case when attempting to deliver a therapeutic compound in vivo. Further, being able to efficiently deliver a compound to a specific location can limit or potentially 16 eliminate unintended consequences (such as off-target effects) that may be caused by administration of the compound. One strategy to facilitate delivery of a compound, such as a 18 therapeutic, prophylactic, or diagnostic compound, to a desired location in vivo, is by linking or attaching the compound to a targeting ligand. 20 One class of compounds that can be targeted using targeting ligands are oligomeric compounds, such as, for example, proteins, peptides, antibodies, and oligonucleotides. 22 Oligomeric compounds that include nucleotide sequences (e.g., oligonucleotides) at least partially complementary to a target nucleic acid have been shown to alter the function and 24 activity of the target both in vitro and in vivo. When delivered to a cell containing a target nucleic acid (such as mRNA or pre-mRNA), oligonucleotides have been shown to modulate the 26 expression or activity of the target nucleic acid. In certain instances, the oligonucleotide can reduce the expression of the gene by inhibiting translation of the nucleic acid target and / or 28 triggering the degradation of the target nucleic acid. If the target nucleic acid is mRNA, one mechanism by which an oligonucleotide can 30 modulate the expression of the mRNA target is through RNA interference. RNA interference is a biological process by which RNA or RNA-like compounds (such as chemically modified RNA 32 compounds) are able to silence gene expression, at least in part, through the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC) pathway. Additionally, oligonucleotides can modulate the expression 34 of a target nucleic acid, such as a target mRNA, through an RNase recruitment mechanism, microRNA mechanisms, occupancy-based mechanisms, and editing mechanisms. 2 Oligonucleotides may be single-stranded or double-stranded. Oligonucleotides may comprise DNA, RNA, and RNA-like compounds, which can also include modified nucleosides including 4 one or more modified sugars, modified nucleobases, and modified internucleoside linkages. There is a need for new compounds for delivering to subjects pharmaceutical agents (e.g., 6 therapeutic, prophylactic, and diagnostic agents). 8 SUMMARY In one aspect, the present disclosure provides oligonucleotides comprising at least one 10 radical of a central nervous system receptor ligand at a nucleobase, the 2′ position of a nucleoside, or the 3′ position of a nucleoside. 12 In another aspect, the present disclosure is directed to oligonucleotides comprising a modified oligonucleotide strand comprising s1 instances of modified nucleosides independently 14 comprising a moiety of Formula I: 16 (I);

Further, other advantages and novel features of the present disclosure will become apparent from the following detailed description of various non-limiting embodiments. 8 DEFINITIONS 10 Definitions of specific functional groups and chemical terms are described in more detail below. The chemical elements are identified in accordance with the Periodic Table of the 12 Elements, CAS version, Handbook of Chemistry and Physics, 75thEd., inside cover, and specific functional groups are generally defined as described therein. Additionally, general principles of 14 organic chemistry, as well as specific functional moieties and reactivity, are described in Thomas Sorrell, Organic Chemistry, University Science Books, Sausalito, 1999;Michael B. Smith, 16 March’s Advanced Organic Chemistry, 7thEdition, John Wiley & Sons, Inc., New York, 2013; Richard C. Larock, Comprehensive Organic Transformations, John Wiley & Sons, Inc., New 18 York, 2018; and Carruthers, Some Modern Methods of Organic Synthesis, 3rdEdition, Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, 1987. 20 Compounds (e.g., oligonucleotides) described herein can comprise one or more asymmetric centers, and thus can exist in various stereoisomeric forms, e.g., enantiomers and / or 22 diastereomers. For example, the compounds described herein can be in the form of an individual enantiomer, diastereomer or geometric isomer, or can be in the form of a mixture of 24 stereoisomers, including racemic mixtures and mixtures enriched in one or more stereoisomer. Isomers can be isolated from mixtures by methods known to those skilled in the art, including 26 chiral high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) and the formation and crystallization of chiral salts; or preferred isomers can be prepared by asymmetric syntheses. See, for example, 28 Jacques et al., Enantiomers, Racemates and Resolutions (Wiley Interscience, New York, 1981); Wilen et al., Tetrahedron 33:2725 (1977); Eliel, E.L. Stereochemistry of Carbon Compounds 30 (McGraw–Hill, NY, 1962); and Wilen, S.H., Tables of Resolving Agents and Optical Resolutions p.268 (E.L. Eliel, Ed., Univ. of Notre Dame Press, Notre Dame, IN 1972). The present 32 disclosure additionally encompasses compounds as individual isomers substantially free of other isomers, and alternatively, as mixtures of various isomers. Unless otherwise provided, formulae and structures depicted herein include compounds 2 that do not include isotopically enriched atoms, and also include compounds that include isotopically enriched atoms. For example, compounds having the present structures except for the 4 replacement of hydrogen by deuterium or tritium, replacement of19F with18F, or the replacement of a carbon by a13C- or14C-enriched carbon are within the scope of the disclosure. Such 6 compounds are useful, for example, as analytical tools or probes in biological assays. When a range of values (“range”) is listed, it encompasses each value and sub-range 8 within the range.

Barry Sharpless in 2001 20 and tailored to generate substances quickly and reliably by joining small units together through coupling reactions. See, e.g., Kolb, Finn and Sharpless Angewandte Chemie International Edition 22 (2001) 40: 2004–2021; Evans, Australian Journal of Chemistry (2007) 60: 384–395). Exemplary coupling reactions include, but are not limited to, formation of esters, thioesters, amides (e.g., 24 peptide coupling) from activated acids or acyl halides; nucleophilic displacement reactions (e.g., nucleophilic displacement of a halide or ring opening of strained ring systems); azide–alkyne 26 Huisgen cycloaddition; thiol–yne addition; imine formation; Michael additions (e.g., maleimide addition); and Diels–Alder reactions (e.g., tetrazine [4 + 2] cycloaddition). 28 As used herein, the term “salt” refers to any and all salts and encompasses pharmaceutically acceptable salts. Salts include ionic compounds that result from the 30 neutralization reaction of an acid and a base. A salt is composed of one or more cations (positively charged ions) and one or more anions (negative ions) so that the salt is electrically 32 neutral (without a net charge). Salts of the compounds of this the present disclosure include those derived from inorganic and organic acids and bases. Examples of acid addition salts are salts of 34 an amino group formed with inorganic acids, such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, phosphoric acid, sulfuric acid, and perchloric acid, or with organic acids, such as acetic acid, 2 oxalic acid, maleic acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, succinic acid, or malonic acid or by using other methods known in the art such as ion exchange. Other salts include adipate, alginate, ascorbate, 4 aspartate, benzenesulfonate, benzoate, bisulfate, borate, butyrate, camphorate, camphorsulfonate, citrate, cyclopentanepropionate, digluconate, dodecylsulfate, ethanesulfonate, formate, fumarate, 6 glucoheptonate, glycerophosphate, gluconate, hemisulfate, heptanoate, hexanoate, hydroiodide, 2–hydroxy–ethanesulfonate, lactobionate, lactate, laurate, lauryl sulfate, malate, maleate, 8 malonate, methanesulfonate, 2–naphthalenesulfonate, nicotinate, nitrate, oleate, oxalate, palmitate, pamoate, pectinate, persulfate, 3–phenylpropionate, phosphate, picrate, pivalate, 10 propionate, stearate, succinate, sulfate, tartrate, thiocyanate, p-toluenesulfonate, undecanoate, valerate, hippurate, and the like. Salts derived from appropriate bases include alkali metal, 12 alkaline earth metal, ammonium and N+(C1–4alkyl)4salts. Representative alkali or alkaline earth metal salts include sodium, lithium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, and the like. Further salts 14 include ammonium, quaternary ammonium, and amine cations formed using counterions such as halide, hydroxide, carboxylate, sulfate, phosphate, nitrate, lower alkyl sulfonate, and aryl 16 sulfonate. The term “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” refers to those salts which are, within the 18 scope of sound medical judgment, suitable for use in contact with the tissues of humans and lower animals without undue toxicity, irritation, allergic response, and the like, and are 20 commensurate with a reasonable benefit / risk ratio.

Nucleobases may include purine bases and pyrimidine bases. Five nucleobases— 8 adenine (A), cytosine (C), guanine (G), thymine (T), and uracil (U)—are referred to as primary or canonical nucleobases. Nucleobases may include unmodified and modified nucleobases. When 10 a nucleobase is listed in a formula definition, it refers to that moiety covalently bonded to the recited formula. 12 The term “nucleobase sequence” means the order of contiguous nucleobases in a nucleic acid or oligonucleotide independent of any sugar or internucleoside linkage. 14 The term “nucleoside” means a compound comprising a nucleobase and a sugar moiety. The nucleobase and sugar moiety are each, independently, unmodified or modified. The 16 nucleoside may an unmodified or modified nucleoside. “Modified nucleoside” means a nucleoside comprising a modified nucleobase and / or a modified sugar moiety. Modified18 nucleosides include abasic nucleosides, which lack a nucleobase and optionally include a non- nucleobase moiety at the corresponding position (e.g., 1¢ position). 20 The terms “internucleoside linkage,” “internucleoside linker,” “internucleosidic linkage,” and “internucleosidic linker” are used interchangeably. 22 The term “target nucleic acid,” “target RNA,” and “nucleic acid target” all mean a nucleic acid capable of being targeted by oligonucleotides (e.g., a radical of a ligand included in the 24 oligonucleotides) described herein. “Target region” means a portion of a target nucleic acid to which one or more 26 oligonucleotides (e.g., a radical of a ligand included in the oligonucleotides) is targeted. “Terminal group” means a chemical group or group of atoms that is covalently linked to a 28 terminus of an oligonucleotide. The term “sense oligonucleotide,” “sense oligonucleotide strand,” or “sense strand” 30 means the strand of a double-stranded oligonucleotide that includes a region that is substantially complementary to a region of the antisense strand of the double-stranded oligonucleotide. The 32 sense strand may carry a translatable code in the 5′ to 3′ direction. The term “antisense oligonucleotide,” “antisense oligonucleotide strand,” or “antisense 34 strand” means an oligonucleotide which includes a region that is complementary, or at least partially complementary, to a target nucleic acid or sense strand of a nucleic acid. In some 2 embodiments, the antisense strand does not carry a translatable code in the 5′ to 3′ direction. In some embodiments, the antisense strand and the sense strand or target nucleic acid are at least 4 70%, at least 75%, at least 80%, at least 85%, at least 90%, at least 95%, at least 96%, at least 97%, at least 98%, or at least 99% complementary to one another. In certain embodiments, the 6 antisense strand and the sense strand or target nucleic acid are completely complementary (100% complementary) to one another. 8 The terms “microRNA” and “miRNA,” as may be used interchangeably herein, refer to short (e.g., about 20 to about 24 nucleotides in length) non-coding ribonucleic acids (RNAs) that 10 are involved in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression in multicellular organisms by affecting both the stability and translation of mRNAs. miRNAs are transcribed by RNA 12 polymerase II as part of capped and polyadenylated primary transcripts (pri-miRNAs) that can be either protein-coding or non-coding. The primary transcript is cleaved by the Drosha 14 ribonuclease III enzyme to produce a stem-loop precursor miRNA (pre-miRNA) approximately 70 nucleotides in length, which is further processed in the RNAi pathway. As part of this 16 pathway, the pre-miRNA is cleaved by the cytoplasmic Dicer ribonuclease to generate the mature miRNA and antisense miRNA star (miRNA*) products. The mature miRNA is incorporated into 18 an RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC), which recognizes target mRNAs through imperfect base pairing (i.e., partial complementarity) with the miRNA and most commonly results in 20 translational inhibition or destabilization of the target mRNA. This mechanism is most often seen through the binding of the miRNA on the 3′ untranslated region (UTR) of the target mRNA, 22 which can decrease gene expression by either inhibiting translation (for example, by blocking the access of ribosomes for translation) or directly causing degradation of the transcript. The term 24 (i.e., miRNA) may be used herein to refer to any form of the subject miRNA (e.g., precursor, primary, and / or mature miRNA). 26 The terms “small interfering RNA,” “short interfering RNA,” and “siRNA,” as may be used interchangeably herein, refer to RNA compounds that present as non-coding single-stranded 28 RNA or double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) compounds having a strand or strands of about 20 to about 24 nucleotides in length and are useful in RNA interference (RNAi). siRNAs are often30 found with phosphorylated 5′ ends and hydroxylated 3′ ends, which 3′ ends typically have a 2- nucleotide overhang beyond the 5′ end of the anti-parallel strand (e.g., complementary strand of 32 the dsRNA compound). siRNAs can interfere with the expression of specific genes through binding of target sequences (e.g., target nucleic acid sequences) to which they are complementary 34 and promoting (e.g., facilitating, triggering, initiating) degradation of the mRNA, thereby preventing (e.g., inhibiting, silencing, interfering with) translation. RNAi act, at least in part, 2 through an RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC) pathway or Ago2, but not through RNaseΗ, to modulate a target nucleic acid and / or protein encoded by a target nucleic acid. After 4 integration and separation into the RISC complex, siRNAs base-pair (e.g., full complementarity) to their target mRNA and cleave it, thereby preventing it from being used as a translation 6 template. As discussed herein above, also part of the RNAi pathway, a miRNA-loaded RISC complex scans cytoplasmic mRNAs for potential complementarity (e.g., partial 8 complementarity). The term “circular RNA” (“circRNA”) refers to an RNA that is covalently closed (i.e., 10 the 5′ and 3′ ends have been joined together) to form a continuous loop. CircRNAs are resistant to exonuclease degradation and are often much more stable than a corresponding linear RNA of 12 the same sequence. CircRNAs therefore typically have longer half-lives than linear RNAs. They have many different biological functions and are known to act, for example, as transcriptional 14 regulators, microRNA sponges, and protein templates. CircRNAs are also known to interact with proteins, e.g., by mediating or altering protein-protein interactions, sequestering proteins, 16 recruiting proteins to chromatin, and facilitating protein translocation. A “short hairpin RNA” (“shRNA”) refers to an RNA compound with a tight hairpin turn 18 that can be used, for example, to silence target gene expression via RNAi. shRNA often have lower rates of degradation and turnover relative to other RNAi agents due to the presence of the 20 hairpin structure. The term “mRNA” or “mRNA molecule” refers to messenger RNA, or the RNA that 22 serves as a template for protein synthesis in a cell. The sequence of a strand of mRNA is based on the sequence of a complementary strand of DNA comprising a sequence coding for the 24 protein to be synthesized. The term “ADAR recruiting compound,” as may be used herein, refers to a nucleic acid 26 that is configured to increase the concentration of Adenosine Deaminase Acting on Ribonucleic Acid (ADAR) enzyme in a location around the nucleic acid. In some embodiments, an increased 28 concentration is relative to the concentration in a given location absent the ADAR recruiting compound. In some embodiments, an ADAR recruiting compound comprises a double-stranded 30 RNA duplex. The term “ADAR targeting compound,” as may be used herein, refers to a nucleic acid 32 that is configured to direct an ADAR compound to a desirable location (e.g., location). As used herein, the term “direct” refers to increasing the concentration of ADAR in the desirable location 34 as compared to the concentration absent the ADAR targeting compound. In some embodiments, the ADAR targeting compound can be configured to control the desirable location by altering the 2 sequence and / or properties of the nucleic acid (e.g., by modifications to the nucleobase, sugar, internucleoside linkage, or other component). In some embodiments, an ADAR targeting 4 compound comprises an ADAR recruiting compound and a single-stranded guide nucleic acid. In some embodiments, an ADAR targeting compound comprises a double-stranded RNA duplex 6 and a single-stranded guide nucleic acid. The term “single-stranded guide nucleic acid” or “guide RNA,” as may be used herein, 8 refers to a nucleic acid of a single strand, which comprises a specific sequence that is at least partially complementary to a target sequence. In some embodiments, the target sequence is at, 10 adjacent to, or in proximity to, a location where it is desirable to modulate ADAR concentration. In some embodiments, the level of complementarity is sufficient to facilitate binding (e.g., 12 annealing) of the single-stranded guide nucleic acid to the target sequence. “Modified oligonucleotide” means an oligonucleotide, wherein at least one sugar, 14 nucleobase, or internucleoside linkage is modified. “Nucleobase sequence” means the order of contiguous nucleobases in a nucleic acid or 16 oligonucleotide independent of any sugar or internucleoside linkage. The term “oligomeric duplex” means a duplex formed by two oligomeric compounds 18 having complementary nucleobase sequences. Each oligomeric compound of an oligomeric duplex may be referred to as a “duplexed oligomeric compound.” The oligonucleotides of each 20 oligomeric compound of an oligomeric duplex may include non-complementary overhanging nucleosides. “Phosphorothioate,” “phosphorothioate linkage,” or “phosphorothioate linker” 22 means a modified phosphate linkage in which one of the non-bridging oxygen atoms is replaced with a sulfur atom. 24 “Phosphorothiolate,” “phosphorothiolate linkage,” or “phosphorothiolate linker” means a modified phosphate linkage in which one or each of the bridging oxygen atoms is replaced with a 26 sulfur atom. A “linker” refers to a polyvalent (e.g., divalent, trivalent, or tetravalent) chemical moiety 28 (e.g., a combination of atoms having appropriate valency according to known chemistry principles) that covalently connects two or more (e.g., three or four) components of a compound 30 (e.g., oligonucleotide) provided herein. The term “ligand” refers to a substance that binds to or otherwise interacts with a protein, 32 nucleic acid, or other biological molecule. In some embodiments, a ligand is selected from the group consisting of small molecules; saccharines; oligosaccharides; polysaccharides; biological 34 macromolecules, e.g., peptides, proteins, and peptide analogs and derivatives; peptidomimetics; antibodies and antigen binding fragments thereof; nucleic acids; nucleic acid analogs and 2 derivatives; an extract made from biological materials such as bacteria, plants, fungi, or animal cells; animal tissues; and naturally occurring or synthetic compositions. In some embodiments, a 4 ligand is a small molecule. In some embodiments, a ligand binds to a protein (e.g., a receptor). In certain embodiments, a ligand binds to tropomyosin receptor kinase B (TrkB), cannabinoid 6 receptor type 1 (CB1), α4β1 / 7integrin receptor, or N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor. In some embodiments, a ligand is capable of selectively targeting an oligonucleotide (e.g., an 8 oligonucleotide strand thereof) to a region of the body, or to a cell. In some embodiments, a ligand is capable of targeting an oligonucleotide (e.g., an oligonucleotide strand thereof) to the 10 brain of a subject (e.g., to the striatum, cerebellum, brain stem, hippocampus, frontal cortex, or spinal cord of the subject). In some embodiments, a ligand is capable of targeting an 12 oligonucleotide (e.g., an oligonucleotide strand thereof) to a central nervous system (CNS) cell (e.g., a neuron). In some embodiments, a ligand is not a lipid. 14 The term “internal position” of an oligonucleotide strand refers to a position of the oligonucleotide strand other than the 5′ or 3′ nucleoside.

Many other bicyclic and tricyclic sugar and sugar surrogate ring systems are known in the art that can be used in modified 2 nucleosides. In some embodiments, modified sugars and / or unmodified sugars are arranged along the 4 modified oligonucleotide strand or regions thereof in a defined pattern or “sugar motif”. In certain instances, such sugar motifs include, but are not limited to, any of the patterns of sugar 6 modifications described herein. In certain embodiments, an oligonucleotide strand comprises a gapmer sugar motif. A 8 gapmer oligonucleotide strand comprises or consists of a region having two external “wing” regions and a central or internal “gap” region.
