AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Natural poly(A) sequences in mRNA are prone to instability and variability, leading to inconsistent mRNA stability and translation efficiency, which complicates the development and quality control of mRNA-based pharmaceutical agents.

Method used

Development of modified poly(A) polynucleotides with specific structures, including R and S elements, to enhance mRNA stability and translation efficiency, along with vectors, host cells, and lipid nanoparticles for pharmaceutical compositions.

Benefits of technology

The modified poly(A) polynucleotides improve mRNA stability and translation efficiency, enabling more controlled and effective production of pharmaceutical agents for treating diseases such as cancer, rare diseases, and infectious diseases.

Abstract

A polynucleotide comprising a modified poly(A) having at least 30 nucleotides. The modified poly(A) comprises: i) at least two R elements, each R element being defined as a polynucleotide consisting of A nucleotides; and ii) at least one S element. The S element is a) a nucleotide that is not an A nucleotide, or b) composed of at least two nucleotides, both of which are not A nucleotides. The total number of S elements is one less than the total number of R elements, and the S elements are connected to the R elements, and each S element is flanked at both ends by the R elements. The present invention also relates to vectors and host cells comprising polynucleotides, methods for preparing RNA using polynucleotides and RNA prepared thereby, pharmaceutical compositions or LNPs comprising polynucleotides, RNA, vectors, and / or host cells, and their uses.
