Abstract: The present disclosure provides conjugates that comprise an insulin molecule conjugated via a conjugate framework to two or more separate ligands that each include a saccharide, wherein the framework, ligand, saccharide and insulin molecule optionally comprise a fatty chain (e.g., a C8-30 fatty chain), wherein when said insulin molecule is conjugated both to a C8-30 fatty chain and one or more separate ligands that each include a saccharide, said C8-30 fatty chain is linked to insulin molecule only, and wherein when the framework or ligand comprises a fatty chain the insulin molecule is conjugated to two or more separate ligands. In certain embodiments, a conjugate is characterized in that, when the conjugate is administered to a mammal, at least one pharmacokinetic (PK) and/or pharmacodynamic (PD) property of the conjugate is sensitive to serum concentration of a second saccharide. In certain embodiments, a conjugate is also characterized by having a protracted PK profile.

Abstract: The present invention relates to insulin analogues and processes of making such insulin analogues by direct conversion of a free amine to an azide via diazo-transfer with an azotransfer agent.

Abstract: Insulin dimers and insulin analog dimers that act as partial agonists at the insulin receptor are disclosed.

Abstract: The present invention relates to tyrosine-specific functionalized insulin analogs and processes of making such tyrosine-specific functionalized insulin analogs using R-3H-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-(4H)diones (PTAD).

Abstract: Glucose-responsive insulin conjugates that contain one or more trisaccharides are provided. Such insulin conjugates may display a pharmacokinetic (PK) and/or pharmacodynamic (PD) profile that is responsive to the systemic concentrations of a saccharide such as glucose or alpha-methylmannose, even when administered to a subject in need thereof in the absence of an exogenous multivalent saccharide-binding molecule.

Abstract: An insulin conjugate comprising or consisting of a tri-valent sugar cluster is described. In particular aspects, the insulin conjugate displays a pharmacokinetic (PK) and/or pharmacodynamic (PD) profile that is responsive to the systemic concentrations of a saccharide such as glucose or alpha-methylmannose even when administered to a subject in need thereof in the absence of an exogenous multivalent saccharide-binding molecule such as Con A.
