[0655] The potency and persistence of mRNA can be optimized by (1) ensuring that the mRNA delivered to the cytoplasm properly and productively associates with ribosomes; and (2) maximizing the time that the mRNA spends actively producing the desired protein product. The mRNA sequence is a key determinant of its capabilities across these aspects.

[0656] This specification discloses, in particular, the finding that the sequences of the 5' untranslated region (UTR), 3'UTR, and / or stop element of mRNA can be optimized to increase the potency and / or persistence of the mRNA. In some embodiments, this disclosure provides polynucleotide and LNP compositions comprising optimized 5'UTR, 3'UTR, and / or stop element that can increase the potency (e.g., level and / or activity) of mRNA or polypeptide encoded by the mRNA.

[0657] Exemplary effects on the expression of proteins encoded by mRNA and / or mRNA constructs disclosed herein are provided in Examples 1-13 and 14-18. Examples 1-8 demonstrate increased levels and / or activity (e.g., increased protein expression, increased activity, and / or duration of protein expression) of target proteins encoded by mRNA having A1 5'UTR or its variant (A2 5'UTR or A3 5'UTR). Example 9 discloses the discovery and use of B1 3'UTR to extend the half-life of the mRNA construct. Examples 10-13 demonstrate increased levels and / or activity (e.g., increased protein expression, increased activity, and / or duration of protein expression) of target proteins encoded by mRNA having a stop element selected from stop elements C2-C11. In vivo effects of mRNA constructs having combinations of 5'UTR, 3'UTR and / or stop elements disclosed herein are provided in Examples 15-18. Increased levels and / or activity of target proteins are observed across cell types, species, and target proteins as a whole.

[0658] Accordingly, this specification discloses polynucleotides encoding polypeptides, comprising a coding region including (a) a 5'UTR (e.g., as described herein), (b) a stop element (e.g., as described herein), and (c) a 3'UTR (e.g., as described herein), as well as LNP compositions comprising them. In one embodiment, the coding region comprises a polynucleotide sequence (e.g., mRNA) encoding a payload (e.g., a therapeutic payload or a preventive payload). In one embodiment, the level and / or activity (e.g., expression level or half-life) of the polynucleotide (e.g., mRNA) or the polypeptide encoded by the polynucleotide is increased. In one embodiment, the level and / or activity of the polynucleotide (e.g., mRNA) is increased. In one embodiment, the level and / or activity, or duration of expression of the polypeptide encoded by the polynucleotide is increased. Also disclosed herein are methods of using LNP compositions comprising the polynucleotides disclosed herein to treat a disease or disorder in a subject or to promote a desired biological effect.

[0659] definition Polyuridine tract: The terms "polyuridine tract" and "polyuracil tract" are used interchangeably herein and refer to a contiguous interval in a nucleic acid sequence containing two or more uridine or uracil molecules. A polyuridine tract can be present at any position or section of a nucleic acid sequence. In one embodiment, the polyuridine tract is present at the 5'UTR of the nucleic acid sequence. In one embodiment, the polyuridine tract contains at least two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, or twelve contiguous uridine molecules. In one embodiment, the nucleic acid sequence may contain more than one polyuridine tract. In one embodiment, these more than one polyuridine tracts may be arranged adjacent to one another or separated by one or more nucleotides.

[0660] Uridine content: The terms "uridine content" and "uracil content" are interchangeable and refer to the amount of uracil or uridine present in a particular nucleic acid sequence. Uridine content or uracil content can be expressed as an absolute value (the total number of uridine or uracil in the sequence) or a relative value (the percentage of uridine or uracil relative to the total number of nucleic acid bases in the sequence).

[0661] Stop element: As used herein, the term “stop element” refers to a nucleic acid sequence containing a stop codon. The stop codon may be selected from TGA, TAA, and TAG in the case of DNA, or from UGA, UAA, and UAG in the case of RNA. In one embodiment, the stop element comprises two consecutive stop codons. In one embodiment, the stop element comprises three consecutive stop codons. In one embodiment, the stop element comprises four consecutive stop codons. In one embodiment, the stop element comprises five consecutive stop codons. In one embodiment, the stop element further comprises at least one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, or twelve nucleotides upstream and / or downstream of one or more stop codons.

[0662] 3' stabilizing region: As used herein, the term “3' stabilizing region” refers to a region that is stabilized or will be stabilized. The 3' stabilizing region may be located at the 3' end of a nucleic acid sequence. In one embodiment, the 3' stabilizing region comprises a poly(A) tail (e.g., as described herein). In one embodiment, the 3' stabilizing region comprises an alternative nucleoside (e.g., an inverted thymidine).

[0663] Sequence Identity: The calculation of sequence identity between sequences can be performed as follows: To determine the percentage of identity between two nucleotide sequences, the sequences are aligned for optimal comparison purposes (for example, gaps may be introduced in one or both of the first and second nucleotide sequences for optimal alignment). In some embodiments, the length of the reference sequence aligned for comparison purposes is at least 50% (e.g., at least 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, or 100%) of the length of the reference sequence. Nucleotides at corresponding nucleotide positions are compared. If a position in the first sequence is occupied by the same nucleotide as the nucleotide at the corresponding position in the second sequence, then the molecules are identical at that position. The percentage of identity between two sequences is a function of the number of identical positions shared between the sequences, taking into account the number of gaps that need to be introduced for optimal alignment of the two sequences and the length of each gap. The percentage of identity usually refers to the ratio of the number of matching residues to the total length of the alignment. The comparison between sequences and the determination of the percentage of identity between two sequences can be achieved using mathematical algorithms. In some embodiments, the degree of identity between two nucleotide sequences is determined using a pairwise sequence alignment program or a multiple sequence alignment program. Exemplary sequence alignment programs include, but are not limited to, the lalign program (embnet.vital-it.ch; Huang and Miller, (1991) Adv. Appl. Math. 12:337-357) and the Clustal Omega program (www.ebi.ac.uk; Sievers et al. (2011) Mol. Syst. Biol. 7:539). In some embodiments, the default parameters of the program are used. Nucleotide sequences described herein may be used, for example, as "query sequences" for searching public databases to identify other family members or related sequences.Such searches can be performed using the BLAST® program (blast.ncbi.nlm.nhi.gov; Altschul, et al. (1990) J.Mol.Biol.215:403-10). For example, a BLAST nucleotide search can be performed using the blastn program to obtain nucleotide sequences identical or similar to those described herein. In some embodiments, the default parameters of the program are used.

[0664] Alternative Nucleosides: When the term “alternative nucleosides” is used herein with respect to nucleotides, nucleosides, or polynucleotides (such as the polynucleotides of the present invention, e.g., mRNA molecules), it refers to modifications to A, G, U, or C ribonucleotides. Generally, these terms are not intended herein to refer to modifications of ribonucleotides at the naturally occurring 5' terminal mRNA cap site. Such modifications may be a variety of different modifications. In some embodiments, if the polynucleotide is mRNA, the coding region, adjacent regions, and / or terminal regions (e.g., the 3' stabilizing region) may contain one, two, or more (arbitrarily different) nucleoside or nucleotide modifications. In some embodiments, alternative polynucleotides introduced into cells may exhibit reduced degradation within the cell compared to unmodified polynucleotides.

[0667] Approximately, about: As used herein, the terms “approximately” or “about” refer to a value that is similar to the given reference value when applied to the value of one or more subjects. In certain embodiments, unless otherwise stated or evident from the context (unless such a number exceeds 100% of the possible values), the terms “approximately” or “about” refer to a range of values ​​that fall within 25%, 20%, 19%, 18%, 17%, 16%, 15%, 14%, 13%, 12%, 11%, 10%, 9%, 8%, 7%, 6%, 5%, 4%, 3%, 2%, 1%, or less in either direction (greater than or less than) the given reference value. For example, when used in the context of a given amount of compound in the lipid component of an LNP, “about” may mean + / - 5% of the listed value. For example, an LNP containing a lipid component having about 40% of a given compound may contain 30–50% of the compound.

[0668] Conjugated: As used herein, the term “conjugated” means, when used in relation to two or more parts, that the parts physically associate or link together, either directly or through one or more additional parts acting as linkers, to form a sufficiently stable structure, which remains physically associated under the conditions under which the structure is used, for example, under physiological conditions. In some embodiments, the two or more parts may be conjugated by direct covalent chemical bonds. In other embodiments, the two or more parts may be conjugated by ionic bonds or hydrogen bonds.

[0669] Contact: As used herein, the term “contact” means to establish a physical connection between two or more entities. For example, contacting a cell with an mRNA or lipid nanoparticle composition means to establish a physical connection between the cell and the mRNA or lipid nanoparticles. Methods for contacting cells with external entities in vivo, in vitro, and ex vivo are well known in the field of biology. In exemplary embodiments of this disclosure, the step of contacting mammalian cells with a composition (e.g., nanoparticles of this disclosure, or pharmaceutical composition) is performed in vivo. For example, contact between a lipid nanoparticle composition and cells that may be placed within an organism (e.g., a mammal) (e.g., mammalian cells) may be performed by any preferred route of administration (e.g., parenteral administration to the organism, including intravenous, intramuscular, intradermal, and subcutaneous administration). In cells present in vitro, the composition (e.g., lipid nanoparticles) and the cells may be contacted, for example, by adding the composition to the culture medium of the cells, which may involve or result in transfection. Furthermore, two or more cells may be contacted with the nanoparticle composition.

[0670] Delivery: As used herein, the term “delivery” means providing an entity to a recipient. For example, delivery to a target of a therapeutic and / or prophylactic agent may require administration of the LNP containing the therapeutic and / or prophylactic agent to the target (e.g., via intravenous, intramuscular, intradermal, pulmonary, or subcutaneous routes). Administration of LNP to a mammal or mammalian cell may require contact of one or more cells with lipid nanoparticles.

[0671] Encapsulation: As used herein, the term “encapsulate” means to enclose, surround, or encase. In some embodiments, a compound, polynucleotide (e.g., mRNA), or other composition may be fully encapsulated, partially encapsulated, or substantially encapsulated. For example, in some embodiments, the mRNA of this disclosure may be encapsulated in lipid nanoparticles (e.g., liposomes).

[0672] Encapsulation efficiency: As used herein, “encapsulation efficiency” refers to the amount of therapeutic and / or prophylactic agent that becomes part of the LNP relative to the initial total amount of therapeutic and / or prophylactic agent used in the preparation of the LNP. For example, if 97 mg of therapeutic and / or prophylactic agent out of a total of 100 mg initially provided to the composition is encapsulated in the LNP, the encapsulation efficiency may be 97%. As used herein, “encapsulation” may refer to complete, substantial, or partial enclosure, confinement, surrounding, or encasement.

[0673] Effective Dose: As used herein, the term “effective dose” of a drug means an amount sufficient to produce a beneficial or desired outcome, e.g., a clinical outcome, and therefore, the “effective dose” depends on the context in which it is applied. For example, in terms of the amount of target cell delivery-enhanced lipids in the lipid composition (e.g., LNP) of this disclosure, the effective dose of the target cell delivery-enhanced lipids is sufficient to produce a beneficial or desired outcome compared to a lipid composition (e.g., LNP) lacking the target cell delivery-enhanced lipids. Non-limiting examples of beneficial or desired outcomes produced by a lipid composition (e.g., LNP) include an increase in the percentage of transfected cells and / or an increase in the expression level of proteins encoded by nucleic acids associated with / encapsulated with the lipid composition (e.g., LNP). In terms of administering target cell delivery-enhanced lipid-containing lipid nanoparticles so that an effective amount of lipid nanoparticles is taken up by target cells of interest, the effective dose of target cell delivery-enhanced lipid-containing LNP is sufficient to produce a beneficial or desired outcome compared to LNP lacking the target cell delivery-enhanced lipids. Non-limiting examples of beneficial or desired outcomes in a subject include an increased percentage of transfected cells compared to LNPs lacking target cell delivery-enhancing lipids, increased expression levels of proteins encoded by nucleic acids associated with / encapsulated with target cell delivery-enhancing lipid-containing LNPs, and / or increased in vivo prophylactic or therapeutic effects of nucleic acids associated with / encapsulated with target cell delivery-enhancing lipid-containing LNPs or the proteins they encode. In some embodiments, a therapeutically effective amount of target cell delivery-enhancing lipid-containing LNPs is sufficient to treat, improve, diagnose, prevent, and / or delay the onset of symptoms of an infection, disease, disorder, and / or condition when administered to a subject suffering from or susceptible to such an infection, disease, disorder, and / or condition. In another embodiment, an effective amount of lipid nanoparticles is sufficient to result in the expression of a desired protein in at least about 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25% or more of target cells.For example, an effective dose of target cell delivery-enhancing lipid-containing LNP may be an amount that results in the transfection of at least 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, or 35% of target cells after a single intravenous injection.

[0674] Expression: As used herein, “expression” of a nucleic acid sequence means one or more of the following events: (1) generation of an RNA template from a DNA sequence (e.g., by transcription), (2) processing of an RNA transcript (e.g., by splicing, editing, 5' cap formation, and / or 3' end processing), (3) translation of RNA into a polypeptide or protein, and (4) post-translational modification of a polypeptide or protein.

[0675] Ex-vivo: As used herein, the term “ex-vivo” refers to an event occurring outside of a living organism (e.g., an animal, plant, or microorganism, or its cells or tissues). Ex-vivo events can occur in environments minimally altered from their natural (e.g., in-vivo) environment.

[0676] Fragment: As used herein, “fragment” means a portion. For example, a protein fragment may include a polypeptide obtained by digesting a full-length protein isolated from cultured cells or by recombinant DNA technology. A protein fragment may be, for example, a portion of a protein that contains one or more functional domains such that the protein fragment retains the functional activity of the protein.

[0677] GC-rich: As used herein, the term "GC-rich" refers to a nucleic acid base component of a polynucleotide (e.g., mRNA) or any portion thereof (e.g., RNA element) that includes guanine (G) and / or cytosine (C) nucleic acid bases, or derivatives or analogs thereof, and has a GC content greater than about 50%. The term "GC-rich" refers to all or part of a polynucleotide, including but not limited to genes, non-coding regions, 5'UTR, 3'UTR, open reading frames, RNA elements, sequence motifs, or any individual sequence, fragment, or segment thereof, with a GC content of about 50%. In some embodiments of this disclosure, a GC-rich polynucleotide, or any portion thereof, consists solely of guanine (G) and / or cytosine (C) nucleic acid bases.

[0678] GC Content: As used herein, the term “GC content” means the percentage of guanine (G) and cytosine (C) nucleic acid bases, or their derivatives or analogs, in a polynucleotide (e.g., mRNA) or a portion thereof (e.g., an RNA element) (in the total number of possible nucleic acid bases, including adenine (A) and thymine (T) or uracil (U) in DNA and RNA, and their derivatives or analogs). The term “GC content” means all or part of a polynucleotide, including but not limited to genes, non-coding regions, 5' or 3' UTRs, open reading frames, RNA elements, sequence motifs, or any individual sequence, fragment, or segment thereof.

[0679] Non-homologous: As used herein, “non-homologous” means that a sequence (e.g., an amino acid sequence or a polynucleotide encoding an amino acid sequence) is not normally present in a given polypeptide or polynucleotide. For example, an amino acid sequence corresponding to a domain or motif of one protein may be non-homologous to a second protein. Isolated: As used herein, the term “isolated” means a substance or entity that has been separated from at least some of the components to which it was associated (whether in nature or in a laboratory setting). Isolated substances may have varying levels of purity in relation to the substances to which they were associated. Isolated substances and / or entities may be separated from at least about 10%, about 20%, about 30%, about 40%, about 50%, about 60%, about 70%, about 80%, about 90%, or more of the other components to which they were originally associated. In some embodiments, isolated agents are about 80%, about 85%, about 90%, about 91%, about 92%, about 93%, about 94%, about 95%, about 96%, about 97%, about 98%, about 99%, or more than 99% pure. As used herein, a substance is “pure” if it is substantially free of other components.

[0680] Kozak Sequence: The term “Kozak sequence” (also known as “Kozak consensus sequence”) refers to a translation initiation enhancer element that enhances the expression of a gene or open reading frame, located at 5'UTR in eukaryotes. The Kozak consensus sequence was originally defined as the sequence GCCRCC (SEQ ID NO: 43) (R=purine) following an analysis of the effect of a single mutation around the start codon (AUG) in the translation of the preproinsulin gene (Kozak (1986) Cell 44:283-292). The polynucleotides disclosed herein include Kozak consensus sequences, or derivatives or modifications thereof. (For examples of translation enhancer compositions and methods of use thereof, see U.S. Patent No. 5,807,707 by Andrews et al., incorporated herein by reference as a whole; U.S. Patent No. 5,723,332 by Chernajovsky, incorporated herein by reference as a whole; and U.S. Patent No. 5,891,665 by Wilson, incorporated herein by reference as a whole.)

[0681] Scanning Miss: The phenomenon known as "scanning miss" can occur when the PIC bypasses the start codon and continues scanning downstream until an alternative or substitute start codon is recognized. Depending on the frequency of occurrence, this bypass of the start codon by the PIC can reduce translation efficiency. Furthermore, if translation from this downstream AUG codon occurs, it can produce undesirable abnormal translation products that may not induce the desired therapeutic response. In some cases, these abnormal translation products may actually cause adverse reactions (Kracht et al., (2017) Nat Med 23(4):501-507).

[0682] Liposome: As used herein, “liposome” means a structure comprising a lipid-containing membrane surrounding an aqueous interior. A liposome may have one or more lipid membranes. Examples of liposomes include single-layered liposomes (also known in the art as unilamellar liposomes) and multi-layered liposomes (also known in the art as multilamellar liposomes).

[0683] Modified: As used herein, “modified” means a change in state or structure of a molecule of the Disclosure (e.g., a change in the composition or structure of a polynucleotide (e.g., mRNA)). A molecule (e.g., a polynucleotide) can be modified in a variety of ways, for example, chemically, structurally, and / or functionally. For example, a molecule (e.g., a polynucleotide) may be structurally modified by the incorporation of one or more RNA elements, in which case the RNA elements include a sequence and / or secondary structure(s) of RNA that provides one or more functions (e.g., translational regulatory activity). Thus, a molecule (e.g., a polynucleotide) of the Disclosure may include one or more modifications (e.g., one or more chemical, structural, or functional modifications (including any combination thereof)). In one embodiment, a polynucleotide (e.g., an mRNA molecule) of the Disclosure is modified, for example, by the introduction of unnatural nucleosides and / or nucleotides relating to natural ribonucleotides A, U, G, and C. Non-standard nucleotides, such as those with cap structures, differ in chemical structure from A, C, G, and U ribonucleotides, but are not considered "modified."

[0684] mRNA: As used herein, “mRNA” refers to messenger ribonucleic acid. mRNA may be naturally occurring or not. For example, mRNA may contain one or more nucleic acid bases, nucleosides, nucleotides, or linkers, and / or components that are not naturally occurring. mRNA may contain a cap structure, a chain termination nucleoside, a stem-loop, a poly(A) sequence, and / or a polyadenylation signal. mRNA may have a nucleotide sequence that codes for a polypeptide. When mRNA is translated, for example, when mRNA is translated in vivo in a mammalian cell, polypeptides may be produced. Traditionally, the basic components of an mRNA molecule include at least one coding region, a 5' untranslated region (5'UTR), a 3'UTR, a 5' cap, and a poly(A) sequence. In one embodiment, the mRNA is circular mRNA.

Also typically, nanoparticles have any one structural feature on a scale of about 50 nm to about 500 nm, about 50 nm to about 200 nm, or about 70 to about 120 nm. In exemplary embodiments, nanoparticles are particles having one or more sizes on the order of about 1 to 1000 nm. In other exemplary embodiments, nanoparticles are particles having one or more sizes on the order of about 10 to 500 nm. In other exemplary embodiments, nanoparticles are particles having one or more sizes on the order of about 50 to 200 nm. Spherical nanoparticles, for example, would have a diameter of about 50 to 100 or 70 to 120 nanometers. Nanoparticles, in most cases, behave as a single unit in terms of their transport and properties. Novel properties that differentiate nanoparticles from their corresponding bulk materials typically occur at size scales of less than 1000 nm or around 100 nm, although it should be noted that nanoparticle sizes can be larger, for example, for elliptical or tubular particles. While the sizes of most molecules should fit the above outline, individual molecules are not usually referred to as nanoparticles.
