Said XML copy, created on June 18, 2024, is named 51509-075WO2_Sequence_Listing_6_18_24.XML and is 410,517 bytes in size.BackgroundDelivery of polynucleotides and proteins is important for a wide variety of therapeutic fields. However, current delivery modalities are often ineffective. For example, delivery of short polypeptides, such as polypeptides encoding an antifusogenic polypeptide, often results in short half-life and rapid clearance of the polypeptides.

Terms defined herein have meanings as commonly understood by a person of ordinary skill in the areas relevant to the disclosure. Terms such as "a", "an," and "the" are not intended to refer to only a singular entity but include the general class of which a specific example may be used for illustration. The term "or" is used to mean "and / or" unless explicitly indicated to refer to alternatives only or the alternative are mutually exclusive, although the disclosure supports a definition that refers to only alternatives and "and / or.” The terminology herein is used to describe specific embodiments, but their usage is not to be taken as limiting, except as outlined in the claims.As used herein, any values provided in a range of values include both the upper and lower bounds, and any values contained within the upper and lower bounds.As used herein, the term “about” refers to a value that is within ± 10% of a recited value.As used herein, the term “antibody” (Ab) refers to an immunoglobulin molecule that specifically binds to, or is immunologically reactive with, a particular antigen, and includes polyclonal, monoclonal, genetically engineered and otherwise modified forms of antibodies, including but not limited to chimeric antibodies, humanized antibodies, heteroconjugate antibodies (e.g., bi- tri- and quad-specific antibodies, diabodies, triabodies, and tetrabodies), and antigen-binding fragments of antibodies, including e.g., Fab', F(ab')2, Fab, Fv, rlgG, and scFv fragments. Moreover, unless otherwise indicated, the term “monoclonal antibody” (mAb) is meant to include both intact molecules, as well as antibody fragments (such as, for example, Fab and F(ab')2 fragments) that are capable of specifically binding to a target protein. Fab and F(ab')2 fragments lack the Fc fragment of an intact antibody, clear more rapidly from the circulation of the animal, and may have less non-specific tissue binding than an intact antibody (see Wahl et al., J. Nucl. Med. 24:316, 1983; incorporated herein by reference).The term “antigen-binding fragment,” as used herein, refers to one or more fragments of an antibody that retain the ability to specifically bind to a target antigen. The antigen-binding function of an antibody can be performed by fragments of a full-length antibody. The antibody fragments can be a Fab, F(ab’)2, scFv, SMIP, diabody, a triabody, an affibody, a nanobody, an aptamer, or a domain antibody. Examples of binding fragments encompassed of the term “antigen-binding fragment” of an antibody include, but are not limited to: (i) a Fab fragment, a monovalent fragment consisting of the VL, VH, CL, and CH1 domains; (ii) a F(ab')2 fragment, a bivalent fragment comprising two Fab fragments linked by a disulfide bridge at the hinge region; (iii) a Fd fragment consisting of the VH and CH1 domains; (iv) a Fv fragment consisting of the VL and VH domains of a single arm of an antibody, (v) a dAb including VH and VL domains; (vi) a dAb fragment (Ward et al., Nature 341 :544-546, 1989), which consists of a VH domain; (vii) a dAb which consists of a VH or a VL domain; (viii) an isolated complementarity determining region (CDR); and (ix) a combination of two or more isolated CDRswhich may optionally be joined by a synthetic linker. Furthermore, although then two domains of the Fv fragment, VL and VH, are coded for by separate genes, they can be joined, using recombinant methods, by a linker that enables them to be made as a single protein chain in which the VL and VH regions pair to form monovalent molecules (known as single-chain Fv (scFv); see, e.g., Bird et al., Science 242:423-426, 1988, and Huston et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 85:5879-5883, 1988). These antibody fragments can be obtained using conventional techniques known to those of skill in the art, and the fragments can be screened for utility in the same manner as intact antibodies. Antigen-binding fragments can be produced by recombinant DNA techniques, enzymatic or chemical cleavage of intact immunoglobulins, or, in some embodiments, by chemical peptide synthesis procedures known in the art.As used herein, the term “carrier” is a compound, composition, reagent, or molecule that facilitates the transport or delivery of a composition (e.g., a circular polyribonucleotide) into a cell by a covalent modification of the circular polyribonucleotide, via a partially or completely encapsulating agent, or a combination thereof. Non-limiting examples of carriers include carbohydrate carriers (e.g., an anhydride-modified phyto glycogen or glycogen-type material), nanoparticles (e.g., a nanoparticle that encapsulates or is covalently linked binds to the circular polyribonucleotide), liposomes, fusosomes, ex vivo differentiated reticulocytes, exosomes, protein carriers (e.g., a protein covalently linked to the circular polyribonucleotide), or cationic carriers (e.g., a cationic lipopolymer or transfection reagent).As used herein, the terms “circular polyribonucleotide,” “circular RNA,” and “circRNA” are used interchangeably and mean a polyribonucleotide molecule that has a structure having no free ends (i.e. , no free 3’ or 5’ ends), for example a polyribonucleotide molecule that forms a circular or end-less structure through covalent or non-covalent bonds. The circular polyribonucleotide may be, e.g., a covalently closed polyribonucleotide.As used herein, the term “circularization efficiency” is a measurement of resultant circular polyribonucleotide versus its non-circular starting material.The term “diluent” means a vehicle including an inactive solvent in which a composition described herein (e.g., a composition including a circular polyribonucleotide) may be diluted or dissolved. A diluent can be an RNA solubilizing agent, a buffer, an isotonic agent, or a mixture thereof. A diluent can be a liquid diluent or a solid diluent. Non-limiting examples of liquid diluents include water or other solvents, solubilizing agents and emulsifiers such as ethyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol, ethyl carbonate, ethyl acetate, benzyl alcohol, benzyl benzoate, propylene glycol, 1 ,3- butylene glycol, dimethylformamide, oils (in particular, cottonseed, groundnut, corn, germ, olive, castor, and sesame oils), glycerol, tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol, polyethylene glycols and fatty acid esters of sorbitan, and 1 ,3-butanediol. Non-limiting examples of solid diluents include calcium carbonate, sodium carbonate, calcium phosphate, dicalcium phosphate, calcium sulfate, calcium hydrogen phosphate, sodium phosphate lactose, sucrose, cellulose, microcrystalline cellulose, kaolin, mannitol, sorbitol, inositol, sodium chloride, dry starch, cornstarch, or powdered sugar.As used herein, the terms “disease,” “disorder,” and “condition” each refer to a state of sub- optimal health, for example, a state that is or would typically be diagnosed or treated by a medical professional.As used herein, the term “expression sequence” is a nucleic acid sequence that encodes a product, e.g., a peptide or polypeptide (e.g., an antifusogenic polypeptide). An exemplary expression sequence that codes for a peptide or polypeptide can include a plurality of nucleotide triads, each of which can code for an amino acid and is termed as a “codon.”As used herein, the term “fragment” with respect to a polypeptide or a nucleic acid sequence, e.g., an antifusogenic polypeptide or a nucleic acid sequence encoding an antifusogenic polypeptide, refers to a continuous, less than a whole portion of a sequence of the polypeptide or the nucleic acid. A fragment of a polypeptide or a nucleic acid sequence encoding a polypeptide, for instance, refers to continuous, less than a whole fraction (e.g., at least 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 95%, or 99% of the entire length) of the sequence such as a sequence disclosed herein. It is understood that all the present disclosure contemplates fragments of any antifusogenic polypeptide disclosed herein.As used herein, the term “Fc domain” refers to a polypeptide chain that includes at least a hinge domain and second and third antibody constant domains (CH2 and CH3) or functional fragments thereof (e.g., fragments that that capable of dimerizing and binding to an Fc receptor). The Fc domain can be any immunoglobulin antibody isotype, including IgG, IgE, IgM, IgA, or IgD (e.g., IgG). Additionally, the Fc domain can be an IgG subtype (e.g., IgG 1 , lgG2a, lgG2b, lgG3, or lgG4) (e.g., IgG 1 ). An Fc domain does not include any portion of an immunoglobulin that can act as an antigenrecognition region, e.g., a variable domain or a complementarity determining region (CDR). Fc domains in the conjugates as described herein can contain one or more changes from a wild-type Fc domain sequence (e.g., 1 -10, 1 -8, 1 -6, 1 -4 amino acid substitutions, additions, or deletions) that alter the interaction between an Fc domain and an Fc receptor. Examples of suitable changes are known in the art. Unless otherwise specified herein, numbering of amino acid residues in the IgG or Fc domain is according to the EU numbering system for antibodies, also called the Kabat EU index, as described, for example, in Kabat et al., Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest, 5th Ed. Public Health Service, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, 1991As used herein, the term “GC content” refers to the percentage of guanine (G) and cytosine (C) in a nucleic acid sequence. The formula for calculation of the GC content is (G+C) I (A+G+C+U) x 100% (for RNA) or (G+C) I (A+G+C+T) x 100% (for DNA). Likewise, the term “uridine content” refers to the percentage of uridine (U) in a nucleic acid sequence. The formula for calculation of the uridine content is U / (A+G+C+U) x 100%. Likewise, the term “thymidine content” refers to the percentage of thymidine (T) in a nucleic acid sequence. The formula for calculation of the thymidine content is T / (A+G+C+T) x 100%.By “heterologous” is meant to occur in a context other than in the naturally occurring (native) context. A “heterologous” polynucleotide sequence indicates that the polynucleotide sequence is being used in a way other than what is found in that sequence’s native genome. For example, a “heterologous promoter” is used to drive transcription of a sequence that is not one that is nativelytranscribed by that promoter; thus, a “heterologous promoter” sequence is often included in an expression construct by means of recombinant nucleic acid techniques. The term "heterologous" is also used to refer to a given sequence that is placed in a non-naturally occurring relationship to another sequence; for example, a heterologous coding or non-coding nucleotide sequence is commonly inserted into a genome by genomic transformation techniques, resulting in a genetically modified or recombinant genome.As used herein, the term “intron fragment” refers to a portion of an intron, where a first intron fragment and a second intron fragment together form an intron, such as a catalytic intron. An intron fragment may be a 5’ portion of an intron (e.g., a 5’ portion of a catalytic intron) or a 3’ portion of an intron (e.g., a 3’ portion of a catalytic intron), such that the 5’ intron fragment and the 3’ intron fragment, together, form a functional intron, such as a functional intron capable of catalytic selfsplicing. The term intron fragment is meant to refer to an intron split into two portions. The term intron fragment is not meant to state, imply, or suggest that the two portion or halves are equal in length. The term intron fragment is used synonymously with the term split-intron and may be used instead of the term “half-intron.”As used herein, the term “linear counterpart” is a polyribonucleotide molecule (and its fragments) having the same or similar nucleotide sequence (e.g., 100%, 95%, 90%, 85%, 80%, 75%, or any percentage therebetween sequence identity) as a circular polyribonucleotide and having two free ends (i.e., the uncircularized version (and its fragments) of the circularized polyribonucleotide). In some embodiments, the linear counterpart (e.g., a pre-circularized version) is a polyribonucleotide molecule (and its fragments) having the same or similar nucleotide sequence (e.g., 100%, 95%, 90%, 85%, 80%, 75%, or any percentage therebetween sequence identity) and same or similar nucleic acid modifications as a circular polyribonucleotide and having two free ends (i.e., the uncircularized version (and its fragments) of the circularized polyribonucleotide). In some embodiments, the linear counterpart is a polyribonucleotide molecule (and its fragments) having the same or similar nucleotide sequence (e.g., 100%, 95%, 90%, 85%, 80%, 75%, or any percentage therebetween sequence identity) and different or no nucleic acid modifications as a circular polyribonucleotide and having two free ends (i.e., the uncircularized version (and its fragments) of the circularized polyribonucleotide). In some embodiments, a fragment of the polyribonucleotide molecule that is the linear counterpart is any portion of linear counterpart polyribonucleotide molecule that is shorter than the linear counterpart polyribonucleotide molecule.

A therapeutic agent can be administered to a subject who is at increased risk of developing a viral infection relative to a member of the general population in order to prevent the development of, or lessen the severity of, the disease or condition. A therapeutic agent can be administered as a prophylactic, e.g., before development of any symptom or manifestation of a viral infection.As used herein, the term “regulatory element” is a moiety, such as a nucleic acid sequence, that modifies expression of an expression sequence within the circular or linear polyribonucleotide.As used herein, a “spacer” refers to any contiguous nucleotide sequence (e.g., of one or more nucleotides) that provides distance or flexibility between two adjacent polynucleotide regions.A “signal sequence” refers to a polypeptide sequence, e.g., between 10 and 45 amino acids in length, that is present at the N-terminus of a polypeptide sequence of a nascent protein which targets the polypeptide sequence to the secretory pathway.As used herein, the term “sequence identity” is determined by alignment of two peptide or two nucleotide sequences using a global or local alignment algorithm. Sequences are referred to as "substantially identical” or “essentially similar” when they share at least a certain minimal percentage of sequence identity when optimally aligned (e.g., when aligned by programs such as GAP or BESTFIT using default parameters). GAP uses the Needleman and Wunsch global alignment algorithm to align two sequences over their entire length, maximizing the number of matches and minimizes the number of gaps. Generally, the GAP default parameters are used, with a gap creation penalty = 50 (nucleotides) I 8 (proteins) and gap extension penalty = 3 (nucleotides) 12 (proteins). For nucleotides the default scoring matrix used is nwsgapdna, and for proteins the default scoring matrix is Blosum62 (Henikoff & Henikoff, 1992, PNAS 89, 915-919). Sequence alignments and scores forpercentage sequence identity are determined, e.g., using computer programs, such as the GCG Wisconsin Package, Version 10.3, available from Accelrys Inc., 9685 Scranton Road, San Diego, CA 92121 -3752 USA, or EmbossWin version 2.10.0 (using the program “needle”).

In some embodiments, the antifusogenic polypeptide encoded by the circular polyribonucleotide includes a secretion signal. For example, the secretion signal may be the naturally encoded secretion signal for a secreted protein. In another example, the secretion signal may be a modified secretion signal for a secreted protein. In other embodiments, the antifusogenic polypeptide encoded by the circular polyribonucleotide does not include a secretion signal.In some embodiments, the signal sequence is selected from SecSP38 (MWWRLWWLLLLLLLLWPMVWA; SEQ ID NO: 380); SecD4 (MWWLLLLLLLLWPMVWA; SEQ ID NO: 381 ), gLuc (MGVKVLFALICIAVAEAK; SEQ ID NO: 382); INHC1 (MASRLTLLTLLLLLLAGDRASS; SEQ ID NO: 383); Epo (MGVHECPAWLWLLLSLLSLPLGLPVLG; SEQ ID NO: 384); and IL-2 (MYRMQLLSCIALSLALVTNS; SEQ ID NO: 385).In some embodiments, a circular polyribonucleotide encodes multiple copies of the same antifusogenic polypeptide (e.g., one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, or more).

In some embodiments, the signal sequence is heterologous to the antifusogenic polypeptide, e.g., is not present when the wild-type antifusogenic polypeptide is expressed endogenously. A polyribonucleotide sequence encoding an antifusogenic polypeptide may be modified to remove the nucleotide sequence encoding a wild-type signal sequence and / or add a sequence encoding a heterologous signal sequence.A polypeptide encoded by a polyribonucleotide (e.g., an antifusogenic polypeptide) may include a signal sequence that directs the antifusogenic polypeptide to the secretory pathway. In some embodiments, the signal sequence may direct the antifusogenic polypeptide to reside in certain organelles (e.g., the endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, or endosomes). In some embodiments, the signal sequence directs the antifusogenic polypeptide to be secreted from the cell. For secreted proteins, the signal sequence may be cleaved after secretion, resulting in a mature protein. In other embodiments, the signal sequence may become embedded in the membrane of the cell or certain organelles, creating a transmembrane segment that anchors the protein to the membrane of the cell, endoplasmic reticulum, or Golgi apparatus.

Exemplary modifications can include any modification to the sugar, the nucleobase, the intemucleoside linkage (e.g., to a linking phosphate / to a phosphodiester linkage I to the phosphodiester backbone), and any combination thereof that can induce ribosomal pausing during translation. Some of the exemplary modifications provided herein are described elsewhere herein.In some embodiments, the stagger element is present in the circular polyribonucleotide in other forms. For example, in some exemplary circular polyribonucleotides, a stagger element includes a termination element of a first expression sequence in the circular polyribonucleotide, and a nucleotide spacer sequence that separates the termination element from a first translation initiation sequence of an expression succeeding the first expression sequence. In some examples, the first stagger element of the first expression sequence is upstream of (5’ to) a first translation initiation sequence of the expression succeeding the first expression sequence in the circular polyribonucleotide. In some cases, the first expression sequence and the expression sequence succeeding the first expression sequence are two separate expression sequences in the circular polyribonucleotide. The distance between the first stagger element and the first translation initiation sequence can enable continuous translation of the first expression sequence and its succeeding expression sequence.In some embodiments, the first stagger element includes a termination element and separates an expression product of the first expression sequence from an expression product of its succeeding expression sequences, thereby creating discrete expression products. In some cases, the circular polyribonucleotide including the first stagger element upstream of the first translation initiation sequence of the succeeding sequence in the circular polyribonucleotide is continuously translated, while a corresponding circular polyribonucleotide including a stagger element of a second expression sequence that is upstream of a second translation initiation sequence of an expression sequence succeeding the second expression sequence is not continuously translated. In some cases, there is only one expression sequence in the circular polyribonucleotide, and the first expression sequence and its succeeding expression sequence are the same expression sequence. In some exemplary circular polyribonucleotides, a stagger element includes a first termination element of a firstexpression sequence in the circular polyribonucleotide, and a nucleotide spacer sequence that separates the termination element from a downstream translation initiation sequence. In some such examples, the first stagger element is upstream of (5’ to) a first translation initiation sequence of the first expression sequence in the circular polyribonucleotide. In some cases, the distance between the first stagger element and the first translation initiation sequence enables continuous translation of the first expression sequence and any succeeding expression sequences.In some embodiments, the first stagger element separates one round expression product of the first expression sequence from the next round expression product of the first expression sequences, thereby creating discrete expression products. In some cases, the circular polyribonucleotide including the first stagger element upstream of the first translation initiation sequence of the first expression sequence in the circular polyribonucleotide is continuously translated, while a corresponding circular polyribonucleotide including a stagger element upstream of a second translation initiation sequence of a second expression sequence in the corresponding circular polyribonucleotide is not continuously translated. In some cases, the distance between the second stagger element and the second translation initiation sequence is at least 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, 6x, 7x, 8x, 9x, or 10x greater in the corresponding circular polyribonucleotide than a distance between the first stagger element and the first translation initiation in the circular polyribonucleotide. In some cases, the distance between the first stagger element and the first translation initiation is at least 2 nt, 3 nt, 4 nt, 5 nt, 6 nt, 7 nt, 8 nt, 9 nt, 10 nt, 11 nt, 12 nt, 13 nt, 14 nt, 15 nt, 16 nt, 17 nt, 18 nt, 19 nt, 20 nt, 25 nt,30 nt, 35 nt, 40 nt, 45 nt, 50 nt, 55 nt, 60 nt, 65 nt, 70 nt, 75 nt, or greater. In some embodiments, the distance between the second stagger element and the second translation initiation is at least 2 nt, 3 nt, 4 nt, 5 nt, 6 nt, 7 nt, 8 nt, 9 nt, 10 nt, 11 nt, 12 nt, 13 nt, 14 nt, 15 nt, 16 nt, 17 nt, 18 nt, 19 nt, 20 nt, 25 nt, 30 nt, 35 nt, 40 nt, 45 nt, 50 nt, 55 nt, 60 nt, 65 nt, 70 nt, 75 nt, or greater than the distance between the first stagger element and the first translation initiation. In some embodiments, the circular polyribonucleotide includes more than one expression sequence.Examples of stagger elements are described in paragraphs

[0175] of International Patent Publication No. WO2019 / 118919, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.In some embodiments, a plurality of an antifusogenic polypeptides encoded by a circular ribonucleotide may be separated by an IRES between each antifusogenic polypeptide (e.g., each antifusogenic polypeptide is operably linked to a separate IRES). For example, a circular polyribonucleotide may include a first IRES operably linked to a first expression sequence and a second IRES operably linked to a second expression sequence. The IRES may be the same IRES between all antifusogenic polypeptides. The IRES may be different between different antifusogenic polypeptides.In some embodiments, the plurality of an antifusogenic polypeptides may be separated by a 2A self-cleaving peptide. For example, a circular polyribonucleotide may encode an IRES operably linked to an open reading frame encoding a first antifusogenic polypeptide, a 2A, and a second antifusogenic polypeptide.In some embodiments, the plurality of an antifusogenic polypeptides may be separated by a protease cleavage site (e.g., a furin cleavage site). For example, a circular polyribonucleotide mayencode an IRES operably linked to an open reading frame encoding a first antifusogenic polypeptide, a protease cleavage site (e.g., a furin cleavage site), and a second antifusogenic polypeptide.In some embodiments, the plurality of an antifusogenic polypeptides may be separated by a 2A self-cleaving peptide and a protease cleavage site (e.g., a furin cleavage site). For example, a circular polyribonucleotide may encode an IRES operably linked to an open reading frame encoding a first antifusogenic polypeptide, a 2A, a protease cleavage site (e.g., a furin cleavage site), and a second antifusogenic polypeptide. A circular polyribonucleotide may also encode an IRES operably linked to an open reading frame encoding a first antifusogenic polypeptide, a protease cleavage site (e.g., a furin cleavage site), a 2A, and a second antifusogenic polypeptide. A tandem 2A and furin cleavage site may be referred to as a furin-2A (which includes furin-2A or 2A-furin, arranged in either orientation).Furthermore, the plurality of an antifusogenic polypeptides encoded by the circular ribonucleotide may be separated by both IRES and 2A sequences. For example, an IRES may be between one antifusogenic polypeptide and a second antifusogenic polypeptide while a 2A peptide may be between the second antifusogenic polypeptide and the third antifusogenic polypeptide. The selection of a particular IRES or 2A self-cleaving peptide may be used to control the expression level of an antifusogenic polypeptide under control of the IRES or 2A sequence. For example, depending on the IRES and or 2A peptide selected, expression on the polypeptide may be higher or lower.In some embodiments, a circular polyribonucleotide includes at least one cleavage sequence. In some embodiments, the cleavage sequence is adjacent to an expression sequence. In some embodiments, the cleavage sequence is between two expression sequences. In some embodiments, cleavage sequence is included in an expression sequence. In some embodiments, the circular polyribonucleotide includes between 2 and 10 cleavage sequences. In some embodiments, the circular polyribonucleotide includes between 2 and 5 cleavage sequences. In some embodiments, the multiple cleavage sequences are between multiple expression sequences; for example, a circular polyribonucleotide may include three expression sequences two cleavage sequences such that there is a cleavage sequence in between each expression sequence. In some embodiments, the circular polyribonucleotide includes a cleavage sequence, such as in an immolating circRNA or cleavable circRNA or self-cleaving circRNA. In some embodiments, the circular polyribonucleotide includes two or more cleavage sequences, leading to separation of the circular polyribonucleotide into multiple products, e.g., miRNAs, linear RNAs, smaller circular polyribonucleotide, etc.In some embodiments, a cleavage sequence includes a ribozyme RNA sequence. A ribozyme (from ribonucleic acid enzyme, also called RNA enzyme or catalytic RNA) is an RNA molecule that catalyzes a chemical reaction. Many natural ribozymes catalyze either the hydrolysis of one of their own phosphodiester bonds, or the hydrolysis of bonds in other RNA, but they have also been found to catalyze the aminotransferase activity of the ribosome. Catalytic RNA can be “evolved” by in vitro methods. Similar to riboswitch activity discussed above, ribozymes and their reaction products can regulate gene expression. In some embodiments, a catalytic RNA or ribozyme can be placed within a larger non-coding RNA such that the ribozyme is present at many copies within the cell for thepurposes of chemical transformation of a molecule from a bulk volume. In some embodiments, aptamers and ribozymes can both be encoded in the same non-coding RNA.In some embodiments, the cleavage sequence encodes a cleavable polypeptide linker. For example, a polyribonucleotide may encode two or more antifusogenic polypeptides, e.g., where the two or more antifusogenic polypeptides are encoded by a single open-reading frame (ORF). For example, two or more antifusogenic polypeptides may be encoded by a single open-reading frame, the expression of which is controlled by an IRES. In some embodiments, the ORF further encodes a polypeptide linker, e.g., such that the expression product of the ORF encodes two or more antifusogenic polypeptides each separated by a sequence encoding a polypeptide linker (e.g., a linker of 5-200, 5 to 100, 5 to 50, 5 to 20, 50 to 100, or 50 to 200 amino acids). The polypeptide linker may include a cleavage site, for example, a cleavage site recognized and cleaved by a protease (e.g., an endogenous protease in a subject following administration of the polyribonucleotide to that subject). In such embodiments, a single expression product including the amino acid sequence of two or more antifusogenic polypeptides is cleaved upon expression, such that the two or more antifusogenic polypeptides are separated following expression. Exemplary protease cleavage sites are known to those of skill in the art, for example, amino acid sequences that act as protease cleavage sites recognized by a metalloproteinase (e.g., a matrix metalloproteinase (MMP), such as any one or more of MMPs 1 -28), a disintegrin and metalloproteinase (ADAM, such as any one or more of ADAMs 2, 7- 12, 15, 17-23, 28-30 and 33), a serine protease (e.g., furin), urokinase-type plasminogen activator, matriptase, a cysteine protease, an aspartic protease, or a cathepsin protease. In some embodiments, the protease is MMP9 or MMP2. In some embodiments, the protease is matriptase.In some embodiments, a circular polyribonucleotide described herein is an immolating circular polyribonucleotide, a cleavable circular polyribonucleotide, or a self-cleaving circular polyribonucleotide. A circular polyribonucleotide can deliver cellular components including, for example, RNA, IncRNA, lincRNA, miRNA, tRNA, rRNA, snoRNA, ncRNA, siRNA, or shRNA. In some embodiments, a circular polyribonucleotide includes miRNA separated by (i) self-cleavable elements; (ii) cleavage recruitment sites; (iii) degradable linkers; (iv) chemical linkers; and / or (v) spacer sequences. In some embodiments, circRNA includes siRNA separated by (i) self-cleavable elements; (ii) cleavage recruitment sites (e.g., ADAR); (iii) degradable linkers (e.g., glycerol); (iv) chemical linkers; and / or (v) spacer sequences. Non-limiting examples of self-cleavable elements include hammerhead, splicing element, hairpin, hepatitis delta virus (HDV), Varkud Satellite (VS), and glmS ribozymes.Translation Initiation SequencesIn some embodiments, the polyribonucleotide described herein (e.g., the polyribonucleotide cargo of the polyribonucleotide) includes at least one translation initiation sequence. In some embodiments, the polyribonucleotide includes a translation initiation sequence operably linked to an expression sequence.In some embodiments, the polyribonucleotide encodes a polypeptide and may include a translation initiation sequence, e.g., a start codon. In some embodiments, the translation initiationsequence includes a Kozak or Shine-Dalgarno sequence. In some embodiments, the polyribonucleotide includes the translation initiation sequence, e.g., Kozak sequence, adjacent to an expression sequence. In some embodiments, the translation initiation sequence is a non-coding start codon. In some embodiments, the translation initiation sequence, e.g., Kozak sequence, is present on one or both sides of each expression sequence, leading to separation of the expression products. In some embodiments, the polyribonucleotide includes at least one translation initiation sequence adjacent to an expression sequence. In some embodiments, the translation initiation sequence provides conformational flexibility to the polyribonucleotide. In some embodiments, the translation initiation sequence is within a substantially single stranded region of the polyribonucleotide. Further examples of translation initiation sequences are described in paragraphs

[0165] of International Patent Publication No. WO2019 / 118919, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.The polyribonucleotide may include more than 1 start codon such as, but not limited to, at least 2, at least 3, at least 4, at least 5, at least 6, at least 7, at least 8, at least 9, at least 10, at least 11 , at least 12, at least 13, at least 14, at least 15, at least 16, at least 17, at least 18, at least 19, at least 20, at least 25, at least 30, at least 35, at least 40, at least 50, at least 60 or more than 60 start codons. Translation may initiate on the first start codon or may initiate downstream of the first start codon.In some embodiments, the polyribonucleotide may initiate at a codon which is not the first start codon, e.g., AUG. Translation of the polyribonucleotide may initiate at an alternative translation initiation sequence, such as, but not limited to, ACG, AGG, AAG, CTG / CUG, GTG / GUG, ATA / AUA, ATT / AUU, TTG / UUG. In some embodiments, translation begins at an alternative translation initiation sequence under selective conditions, e.g., stress induced conditions. As a non-limiting example, the translation of the polyribonucleotide may begin at alternative translation initiation sequence, such as ACG. As another non-limiting example, the polyribonucleotide translation may begin at alternative translation initiation sequence, CTG / CUG. As another non-limiting example, the polyribonucleotide translation may begin at alternative translation initiation sequence, GTG / GUG. As another non-limiting example, the polyribonucleotide may begin translation at a repeat-associated non-AUG (RAN) sequence, such as an alternative translation initiation sequence that includes short stretches of repetitive RNA e.g., CGG, GGGGCC, CAG, CTG.Termination ElementsIn some embodiments, the polyribonucleotide described herein (e.g., the polyribonucleotide cargo of the polyribonucleotide) includes least one termination element. In some embodiments, the polyribonucleotide includes a termination element operably linked to an expression sequence. In some embodiments, the polynucleotide lacks a termination element.In some embodiments, the polyribonucleotide includes one or more expression sequences, and each expression sequence may or may not have a termination element. In some embodiments, the polyribonucleotide includes one or more expression sequences, and the expression sequences lack a termination element, such that the polyribonucleotide is continuously translated. Exclusion of atermination element may result in rolling circle translation or continuous expression of expression product.In some embodiments, the circular polyribonucleotide includes one or more expression sequences, and each expression sequence may or may not have a termination element. In some embodiments, the circular polyribonucleotide includes one or more expression sequences, and the expression sequences lack a termination element, such that the circular polyribonucleotide is continuously translated. Exclusion of a termination element may result in rolling circle translation or continuous expression of expression product, e.g., peptides or polypeptides, due to lack of ribosome stalling or fall-off. In such an embodiment, rolling circle translation expresses a continuous expression product through each expression sequence. In some other embodiments, a termination element of an expression sequence can be part of a stagger element. In some embodiments, one or more expression sequences in the circular polyribonucleotide includes a termination element. However, rolling circle translation or expression of a succeeding (e.g., second, third, fourth, fifth, etc.) expression sequence in the circular polyribonucleotide is performed. In such instances, the expression product may fall off the ribosome when the ribosome encounters the termination element, e.g., a stop codon, and terminates translation. In some embodiments, translation is terminated while the ribosome, e.g., at least one subunit of the ribosome, remains in contact with the circular polyribonucleotide.In some embodiments, the circular polyribonucleotide includes a termination element at the end of one or more expression sequences. In some embodiments, one or more expression sequences includes two or more termination elements in succession. In such embodiments, translation is terminated and rolling circle translation is terminated. In some embodiments, the ribosome completely disengages with the circular polyribonucleotide. In some such embodiments, production of a succeeding (e.g., second, third, fourth, fifth, etc.) expression sequence in the circular polyribonucleotide may require the ribosome to reengage with the circular polyribonucleotide prior to initiation of translation. Generally, termination elements include an in-frame nucleotide triplet that signals termination of translation, e.g., UAA, UGA, UAG. In some embodiments, one or more termination elements in the circular polyribonucleotide are frame-shifted termination elements, such as but not limited to, off-frame or -1 and + 1 shifted reading frames (e.g., hidden stop) that may terminate translation. Frame-shifted termination elements include nucleotide triples, TAA, TAG, and TGA that appear in the second and third reading frames of an expression sequence. Frame-shifted termination elements may be important in preventing misreads of mRNA, which is often detrimental to the cell. In some embodiments, the termination element is a stop codon.Further examples of termination elements are described in paragraphs

UTRs of a genomic region including a gene may be transcribed but not translated. In someembodiments, a UTR may be included upstream of the translation initiation sequence of an expression sequence described herein. In some embodiments, a UTR may be included downstream of an expression sequence described herein. In some instances, one UTR for first expression sequence is the same as or continuous with or overlapping with another UTR for a second expression sequence.

[0205] of International Patent Publication No. WO2019 / 118919, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. In some embodiments, a circular polyribonucleotide lacks a polyA sequence.In some embodiments, a circular polyribonucleotide includes a UTR with one or more stretches of Adenosines and Uridines embedded within. These AU rich signatures may increase turnover rates of the expression product.Introduction, removal, or modification of UTR AU rich elements (AREs) may be useful to modulate the stability, or immunogenicity (e.g., the level of one or more marker of an immune or inflammatory response) of the circular polyribonucleotide. When engineering specific circular polyribonucleotides, one or more copies of an ARE may be introduced to the circular polyribonucleotide and the copies of an ARE may modulate translation and / or production of an expression product. Likewise, AREs may be identified and removed or engineered into the circular polyribonucleotide to modulate the intracellular stability and thus affect translation and production of the resultant protein.It should be understood that any UTR from any gene may be incorporated into the respective flanking regions of the circular polyribonucleotide.In some embodiments, a circular polyribonucleotide lacks a 5’-UTR and is competent for protein expression from its one or more expression sequences. In some embodiments, the circular polyribonucleotide lacks a 3’-UTR and is competent for protein expression from its one or more expression sequences. In some embodiments, the circular polyribonucleotide lacks a polyA sequence and is competent for protein expression from its one or more expression sequences. In some embodiments, the circular polyribonucleotide lacks a termination element and is competent for protein expression from its one or more expression sequences. In some embodiments, the circular polyribonucleotide lacks an internal ribosomal entry site and is competent for protein expression from its one or more expression sequences. In some embodiments, the circular polyribonucleotide lacks a cap and is competent for protein expression from its one or more expression sequences. In some embodiments, the circular polyribonucleotide lacks a 5’-UTR, a 3’-UTR, and an IRES, and is competent for protein expression from its one or more expression sequences. In some embodiments, the circular polyribonucleotide includes one or more of the following sequences: a sequence that encodes one or more miRNAs, a sequence that encodes one or more replication proteins, a sequence that encodes an exogenous gene, a sequence that encodes a therapeutic, a regulatoryelement (e.g., translation modulator, e.g., translation enhancer or suppressor), a translation initiation sequence, one or more regulatory nucleic acids that targets endogenous genes (e.g., siRNA, IncRNAs, shRNA), and a sequence that encodes a therapeutic mRNA or protein.In some embodiments, a circular polyribonucleotide lacks a 5’-UTR. In some embodiments, the circular polyribonucleotide lacks a 3’-UTR. In some embodiments, the circular polyribonucleotide lacks a polyA sequence. In some embodiments, the circular polyribonucleotide lacks a termination element. In some embodiments, the circular polyribonucleotide lacks an internal ribosomal entry site. In some embodiments, the circular polyribonucleotide lacks degradation susceptibility by exonucleases. In some embodiments, the fact that the circular polyribonucleotide lacks degradation susceptibility can mean that the circular polyribonucleotide is not degraded by an exonuclease, or only degraded in the presence of an exonuclease to a limited extent, e.g., that is comparable to or similar to in the absence of exonuclease. In some embodiments, the circular polyribonucleotide is not degraded by exonucleases. In some embodiments, the circular polyribonucleotide has reduced degradation when exposed to exonuclease. In some embodiments, the circular polyribonucleotide lacks binding to a cap-binding protein. In some embodiments, the circular polyribonucleotide lacks a 5’ cap.Protein-Binding SequencesIn some embodiments, a circular polyribonucleotide includes one or more protein binding sites that allow a protein, e.g., a ribosome, to bind to an internal site in the RNA sequence. By engineering protein binding sites, e.g., ribosome binding sites, into the circular polyribonucleotide, the circular polyribonucleotide may evade or have reduced detection by the host’s immune system, have modulated degradation, or modulated translation, by masking the circular polyribonucleotide from components of the host’s immune system.In some embodiments, a circular polyribonucleotide includes at least one immunoprotein binding site, for example to evade immune responses, e.g., CTL (cytotoxic T lymphocyte) responses. In some embodiments, the immunoprotein binding site is a nucleotide sequence that binds to an immunoprotein and aids in masking the circular polyribonucleotide as exogenous. In some embodiments, the immunoprotein binding site is a nucleotide sequence that binds to an immunoprotein and aids in hiding the circular polyribonucleotide as exogenous or foreign.Traditional mechanisms of ribosome engagement to linear RNA involve ribosome binding to the capped 5' end of an RNA. From the 5' end, the ribosome migrates to an initiation codon, whereupon the first peptide bond is formed. According to the present disclosure, internal initiation (i.e. , cap-independent) of translation of the circular polyribonucleotide does not require a free end or a capped end. Rather, a ribosome binds to a non-capped internal site, whereby the ribosome begins polypeptide elongation at an initiation codon. In some embodiments, the circular polyribonucleotide includes one or more RNA sequences including a ribosome binding site, e.g., an initiation codon.Natural 5' UTRs bear features which play roles in translation initiation. They harbor signatures like Kozak sequences which are commonly known to be involved in the process by which the ribosome initiates translation of many genes. Kozak sequences have the consensus CCRCCAUGG(SEQ ID NO: 411 ), where R is a purine (adenine or guanine) three bases upstream of the start codon (AUG), which is followed by another 'G'. 5’ UTRs also have been known to form secondary structures which are involved in elongation factor binding.In some embodiments, a circular polyribonucleotide encodes a protein binding sequence that binds to a protein. In some embodiments, the protein binding sequence targets or localizes the circular polyribonucleotide to a specific target. In some embodiments, the protein binding sequence specifically binds an arginine-rich region of a protein.In some embodiments, the protein binding site includes, but is not limited to, a binding site to the protein such as ACIN1 , AGO, APOBEC3F, APOBEC3G, ATXN2, AUH, BCCIP, CAPRIN1 , CELF2, CPSF1 , CPSF2, CPSF6, CPSF7, CSTF2, CSTF2T, CTCF, DDX21 , DDX3, DDX3X, DDX42, DGCR8, EIF3A, EIF4A3, EIF4G2, ELAVL1 , ELAVL3, FAM120A, FBL, FIP1 L1 , FKBP4, FMR1 , FUS, FXR1 , FXR2, GNL3, GTF2F1 , HNRNPA1 , HNRNPA2B1 , HNRNPC, HNRNPK, HNRNPL, HNRNPM, HNRNPU, HNRNPUL1 , IGF2BP1 , IGF2BP2, IGF2BP3, ILF3, KHDRBS1 , LARP7, LIN28A, LIN28B, m6A, MBNL2, METTL3, MOV10, MSI1 , MSI2, NONO, NONO-, NOP58, NPM1 , NUDT21 , PCBP2, POLR2A, PRPF8, PTBP1 , RBFOX2, RBM10, RBM22, RBM27, RBM47, RNPS1 , SAFB2, SBDS, SF3A3, SF3B4, SIRT7, SLBP, SLTM, SMNDC1 , SND1 , SRRM4, SRSF1 , SRSF3, SRSF7, SRSF9, TAF15, TARDBP, TIA1 , TNRC6A, TOP3B, TRA2A, TRA2B, U2AF1 , U2AF2, UNK, UPF1 , WDR33, XRN2, YBX1 , YTHDC1 , YTHDF1 , YTHDF2, YWHAG, ZC3H7B, PDK1 , AKT1 , and any other protein that binds RNA.Spacer SequencesIn some embodiments, the polyribonucleotide described herein includes one or more spacer sequences. A spacer refers to any contiguous nucleotide sequence (e.g., of one or more nucleotides) that provides distance or flexibility between two adjacent polynucleotide regions. Spacers may be present in between any of the nucleic acid elements described herein. Spacer may also be present within a nucleic acid element described herein.For example, wherein a nucleic acid includes any two or more of the following elements: (A) a 3' catalytic intron fragment; (B) a 3’ splice site; (C) a 3’ exon fragment; (D) a polyribonucleotide cargo; (E) a 5’ exon fragment; (F) a 5’ splice site; and (G) a 5' catalytic intron fragment; a spacer region may be present between any one or more of the elements. Any of elements (A), (B), (C), (D), (E), (F), or (G) may be separated by a spacer sequence, as described herein. For example, there may be a spacer between (A) and (B), between (B) and (C), between (C) and (D), between (D) and (E), between (E) and (F), or between (F) and (G).In some embodiments, the polyribonucleotide further includes a first spacer region between the 5’ exon fragment of (C) and the polyribonucleotide cargo of (D). The spacer may be, e.g., at least 5 {e.g., at least 10, at least 15, at least 20) ribonucleotides in length. In some embodiments, the polyribonucleotide further includes a second spacer region between the polyribonucleotide cargo of (D) and the 5’ exon fragment of (E).A spacer sequences may be used to separate an IRES from adjacent structural elements to martini the structure and function of the IRES or the adjacent element. A spacer can be specificallyengineered depending on the IRES. In some embodiments, an RNA folding computer software, such as RNAFold, can be utilized to guide designs of the various elements of the vector, including the spacers.The spacer may be, e.g., at least 5 (e.g., at least 10, at least 15, at least 20) ribonucleotides in length. In some embodiments, each spacer region is at least 5 (e.g., at least 10, at least 15, at least 20) ribonucleotides in length. Each spacer region may be, e.g., from 5 to 500 (e.g., 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300, 350, 400, 450, or 500) ribonucleotides in length. The first spacer region, the second spacer region, or the first spacer region and the second spacer region may include a polyA sequence. The first spacer region, the second spacer region, or the first spacer region and the second spacer region may include a polyA-C sequence. In some embodiments, the first spacer region, the second spacer region, or the first spacer region and the second spacer region includes a polyA-G sequence. In some embodiments, the first spacer region, the second spacer region, or the first spacer region and the second spacer region includes a polyA-T sequence.

The one or more post-transcriptional modifications can be any post-transcriptional modification, such as any of the more than one hundred different nucleoside modifications that have been identified in RNA (Rozenski, J, Crain, P, and McCloskey, J. (1999). The RNA Modification Database: 1999 update. Nucl Acids Res 27: 196-197). In some embodiments, the first isolated nucleic acid includes messenger RNA (mRNA). In some embodiments, the polyribonucleotide includes at least one nucleoside selected from the group such as those described in

[0311] of International Patent Publication No. WO2019 / 118919A1 , which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.A polyribonucleotide may include any useful modification, such as to the sugar, the nucleobase, or the internucleoside linkage (e.g., to a linking phosphate / to a phosphodiester linkage I to the phosphodiester backbone). One or more atoms of a pyrimidine nucleobase may be replaced or substituted with optionally substituted amino, optionally substituted thiol, optionally substituted alkyl (e.g., methyl or ethyl), or halo (e.g., chloro or fluoro). In certain embodiments, modifications (e.g., one or more modifications) are present in each of the sugar and the internucleoside linkage. Modifications may be modifications of ribonucleic acids (RNAs) to deoxyribonucleic acids (DNAs), threose nucleic acids (TNAs), glycol nucleic acids (GNAs), peptide nucleic acids (PNAs), locked nucleic acids (LNAs) or hybrids thereof). Additional modifications are described herein.In some embodiments, a polyribonucleotide includes at least one N(6)methyladenosine (m6A) modification to increase translation efficiency. In some embodiments, the m6A modification can reduce immunogenicity (e.g., reduce the level of one or more marker of an immune or inflammatory response) of the circular polyribonucleotide.In some embodiments, a modification may include a chemical or cellular induced modification. For example, some non-limiting examples of intracellular RNA modifications are described by Lewis and Pan in “RNA modifications and structures cooperate to guide RNA-protein interactions” from Nat Reviews Mol Cell Biol, 2017, 18:202-210.In some embodiments, chemical modifications to the ribonucleotides of a circular polyribonucleotide may enhance immune evasion. The circular polyribonucleotide may be synthesized and / or modified by methods well established in the art, such as those described in "Current protocols in nucleic acid chemistry," Beaucage, S.L. et al. (Eds.), John Wiley & Sons, Inc., New York, NY, USA, which is hereby incorporated herein by reference. Modifications include, for example, end modifications, e.g., 5' end modifications (phosphorylation (mono-, di- and tri-), conjugation, inverted linkages, etc.), 3' end modifications (conjugation, DNA nucleotides, invertedlinkages, etc.), base modifications (e.g., replacement with stabilizing bases, destabilizing bases, or bases that base pair with an expanded repertoire of partners), removal of bases (abasic nucleotides), or conjugated bases. The modified ribonucleotide bases may also include 5-methylcytidine and pseudouridine. In some embodiments, base modifications may modulate expression, immune response, stability, subcellular localization, to name a few functional effects, of the circular polyribonucleotide. In some embodiments, the modification includes a bi-orthogonal nucleotide, e.g., an unnatural base. See for example, Kimoto et al, Chem Commun (Camb), 2017, 53:12309, DOI: 10.1039 / c7cc06661 a, which is hereby incorporated by reference.In some embodiments, sugar modifications (e.g., at the 2' position or 4' position) or replacement of the sugar one or more ribonucleotides of the circular polyribonucleotide may, as well as backbone modifications, include modification or replacement of the phosphodiester linkages. Specific examples of circular polyribonucleotide include, but are not limited to, circular polyribonucleotide including modified backbones or no natural internucleoside linkages such as internucleoside modifications, including modification or replacement of the phosphodiester linkages. Circular polyribonucleotides having modified backbones include, among others, those that do not have a phosphorus atom in the backbone. For the purposes of this application, and as sometimes referenced in the art, modified RNAs that do not have a phosphorus atom in their internucleoside backbone can also be considered to be oligonucleosides. In particular embodiments, the circular polyribonucleotide will include ribonucleotides with a phosphorus atom in its internucleoside backbone.Modified polyribonucleotide backbones may include, for example, phosphorothioates, chiral phosphorothioates, phosphorodithioates, phosphotriesters, aminoalkylphosphotriesters, methyl and other alkyl phosphonates such as 3'-alkylene phosphonates and chiral phosphonates, phosphinates, phosphoramidates such as 3'-amino phosphoramidate and aminoalkylphosphoramidates, thionophosphoramidates, thionoalkylphosphonates, thionoalkylphosphotriesters, and boranophosphates having normal 3'-5' linkages, 2'-5' linked analogs of these, and those having inverted polarity wherein the adjacent pairs of nucleoside units are linked 3'-5' to 5'-3' or 2'-5' to 5'-2'. Various salts, mixed salts and free acid forms are also included. In some embodiments, the circular polyribonucleotide may be negatively or positively charged.The modified nucleotides, which may be incorporated into the polyribonucleotide, can be modified on the internucleoside linkage (e.g., phosphate backbone). Herein, in the context of the polynucleotide backbone, the phrases "phosphate" and "phosphodiester" are used interchangeably. Backbone phosphate groups can be modified by replacing one or more of the oxygen atoms with a different substituent. Further, the modified nucleosides and nucleotides can include the wholesale replacement of an unmodified phosphate moiety with another internucleoside linkage as described herein. Examples of modified phosphate groups include, but are not limited to, phosphorothioate, phosphoroselenates, boranophosphates, boranophosphate esters, hydrogen phosphonates, phosphoramidates, phosphorodiamidates, alkyl or aryl phosphonates, and phosphotriesters. Phosphorodithioates have both non-linking oxygens replaced by sulfur. The phosphate linker can alsobe modified by the replacement of a linking oxygen with nitrogen (bridged phosphoramidates), sulfur (bridged phosphorothioates), and carbon (bridged methylenephosphonates).The a-thio substituted phosphate moiety is provided to confer stability to RNA and DNA polymers through the unnatural phosphorothioate backbone linkages. Phosphorothioate DNA and RNA have increased nuclease resistance and subsequently a longer half-life in a cellular environment. Phosphorothioate linked to the circular polyribonucleotide is expected to reduce the innate immune response through weaker binding / activation of cellular innate immune molecules.In specific embodiments, a modified nucleoside includes an alpha-thio-nucleoside (e.g., 5'-0- (l-thiophosphate)-adenosine, 5'-0-(l-thiophosphate)-cytidine (a- thio-cytidine), 5'-0-(l-thiophosphate)- guanosine, 5'-0-(l-thiophosphate)-uridine, or 5'-0-(1 -thiophosphate)-pseudouridine).Other internucleoside linkages that may be employed according to the present disclosure, including internucleoside linkages which do not contain a phosphorous atom, are described herein.In some embodiments, a circular polyribonucleotide may include one or more cytotoxic nucleosides. For example, cytotoxic nucleosides may be incorporated into circular polyribonucleotide, such as bifunctional modification. Cytotoxic nucleoside may include, but are not limited to, adenosine arabinoside, 5-azacytidine, 4'-thio-aracytidine, cyclopentenylcytosine, cladribine, clofarabine, cytarabine, cytosine arabinoside, l-(2-C-cyano-2-deoxy-beta-D-arabino-pentofuranosyl)-cytosine, decitabine, 5-fluorouracil, fludarabine, floxuridine, gemcitabine, a combination of tegafur and uracil, tegafur ((RS)-5-fluoro-l-(tetrahydrofuran-2- yl)pyrimidine-2,4(IH,3H)-dione), troxacitabine, tezacitabine, 2'- deoxy-2'-methylidenecytidine (DMDC), and 6-mercaptopurine. Additional examples include fludarabine phosphate, N4-behenoyl-l-beta-D-arabinofuranosylcytosine, N4-octadecyl-1 -beta-D- arabinofuranosylcytosine, N4- palmitoyl-l-(2-C-cyano-2-deoxy-beta-D-arabino-pentofuranosyl) cytosine, and P-4055 (cytarabine 5'-elaidic acid ester).A polyribonucleotide may or may not be uniformly modified along the entire length of the molecule. For example, one or more or all types of nucleotides (e.g., naturally occurring nucleotides, purine or pyrimidine, or any one or more or all of A, G, U, C, I, pU) may or may not be uniformly modified in the circular polyribonucleotide, or in a given predetermined sequence region thereof. In some embodiments, the circular polyribonucleotide includes a pseudouridine. In some embodiments, the circular polyribonucleotide includes an inosine, which may aid in the immune system characterizing the circular polyribonucleotide as endogenous versus viral RNAs. The incorporation of inosine may also mediate improved RNA stability / reduced degradation. See for example, Yu, Z. et al. (2015) RNA editing by ADAR1 marks dsRNA as “self”. Cell Res. 25, 1283-1284, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.In some embodiments, all nucleotides in a polyribonucleotide (or in a given sequence region thereof) are modified. In some embodiments, the modification may include an m6A, which may augment expression; an inosine, which may attenuate an immune response; pseudouridine, which may increase RNA stability, or translational readthrough (stagger element), an m5C, which may increase stability; and a 2,2,7-trimethylguanosine, which aids subcellular translocation (e.g., nuclear localization).Different sugar modifications, nucleotide modifications, and / or internucleoside linkages (e.g., backbone structures) may exist at various positions in a circular polyribonucleotide. One of ordinary skill in the art will appreciate that the nucleotide analogs or other modification(s) may be located at any position(s) of the circular polyribonucleotide, such that the function of the circular polyribonucleotide is not substantially decreased. A modification may also be a non-coding region modification. The circular polyribonucleotide may include from about 1% to about 100% modified nucleotides (either in relation to overall nucleotide content, or in relation to one or more types of nucleotide, i.e. any one or more of A, G, U or C) or any intervening percentage (e.g., from 1% to 20%>, from 1% to 25%, from 1% to 50%, from 1% to 60%, from 1% to 70%, from 1% to 80%, from 1 % to 90%, from 1 % to 95%, from 10% to 20%, from 10% to 25%, from 10% to 50%, from 10% to 60%, from 10% to 70%, from 10% to 80%, from 10% to 90%, from 10% to 95%, from 10% to 100%, from 20% to 25%, from 20% to 50%, from 20% to 60%, from 20% to 70%, from 20% to 80%, from 20% to 90%, from 20% to 95%, from 20% to 100%, from 50% to 60%, from 50% to 70%, from 50% to 80%, from 50% to 90%, from 50% to 95%, from 50% to 100%, from 70% to 80%, from 70% to 90%, from 70% to 95%, from 70% to 100%, from 80% to 90%, from 80% to 95%, from 80% to 100%, from 90% to 95%, from 90% to 100%, and from 95% to 100%).Methods of CircularizationThe disclosure provides methods for producing circular polyribonucleotides encoding an antifusogenic polypeptide (e.g., a polypeptide of Table 1 ), including, e.g., recombinant technology or chemical synthesis. For example, a DNA molecule used to produce an RNA circle can include a DNA sequence of a naturally occurring original nucleic acid sequence, a modified version thereof, or a DNA sequence encoding a synthetic polypeptide not normally found in nature (e.g., chimeric molecules or fusion proteins). DNA and RNA molecules can be modified using a variety of techniques including, but not limited to, classic mutagenesis techniques and recombinant techniques, such as site- directed mutagenesis, chemical treatment of a nucleic acid molecule to induce mutations, restriction enzyme cleavage of a nucleic acid fragment, ligation of nucleic acid fragments, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification or mutagenesis of selected regions of a nucleic acid sequence, synthesis of oligonucleotide mixtures and ligation of mixture groups to "build" a mixture of nucleic acid molecules and combinations thereof.In some embodiments, a linear polyribonucleotide for circularization may be cyclized, or concatemerized. In some embodiments, the linear polyribonucleotide for circularization may be cyclized in vitro prior to formulation and / or delivery. In some embodiments, the circular polyribonucleotide may be in a mixture with linear polyribonucleotides. In some embodiments, the linear polyribonucleotides have the same nucleic acid sequence as the circular polyribonucleotides.In some embodiments, a linear polyribonucleotide for circularization is cyclized, or concatemerized using a chemical method to form a circular polyribonucleotide. In some chemical methods, the 5'-end and the 3'-end of the nucleic acid (e.g., a linear polyribonucleotide for circularization) includes chemically reactive groups that, when close together, may form a new covalent linkage between the 5'-end and the 3'-end of the molecule. The 5'-end may contain an NHS-ester reactive group and the 3'-end may contain a 3'-amino-terminated nucleotide such that in an organic solvent the 3'-amino-terminated nucleotide on the 3'-end of a linear RNA molecule will undergo a nucleophilic attack on the 5'-NHS-ester moiety forming a new 5'73'-amide bond.In some embodiments, a DNA or RNA ligase is used to enzymatically link a 5'-phosphorylated nucleic acid molecule (e.g., a linear polyribonucleotide for circularization) to the 3'-hydroxyl group of a nucleic acid (e.g., a linear nucleic acid) forming a new phosphorodiester linkage. In an example reaction, a linear polyribonucleotide for circularization is incubated at 37°C for 1 hour with 1 -10 units of T4 RNA ligase (New England Biolabs, Ipswich, MA) according to the manufacturer's protocol. The ligation reaction may occur in the presence of a linear nucleic acid capable of base-pairing with both the 5'- and 3'- region in juxtaposition to assist the enzymatic ligation reaction. In some embodiments, the ligation is splint ligation. For example, a splint ligase, like SplintR® ligase, can be used for splint ligation, RNA ligase II, T4 RNA ligase, or T4 DNA ligase. For splint ligation, a single stranded polynucleotide (splint), like a single stranded RNA, can be designed to hybridize with both termini of a linear polyribonucleotide, so that the two termini can be juxtaposed upon hybridization with the singlestranded splint. Splint ligase can thus catalyze the ligation of the juxtaposed two termini of the linear polyribonucleotide, generating a circular polyribonucleotide.In some embodiments, a DNA or RNA ligase is used in the synthesis of the circular polynucleotides. In some embodiments, either the 5'-or 3'-end of the linear polyribonucleotide for circularization can encode a ligase ribozyme sequence such that during in vitro transcription, the resultant linear polyribonucleotide for circularization includes an active ribozyme sequence capable of ligating the 5'-end of the linear polyribonucleotide for circularization to the 3'-end of the linear polyribonucleotide for circularization. The ligase ribozyme may be derived from the Group I Intron, Hepatitis Delta Virus, Hairpin ribozyme or may be selected by SELEX (systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment). The ribozyme ligase reaction may take 1 to 24 hours at temperatures between 0 and 37°C.In some embodiments, a linear polyribonucleotide for circularization is cyclized or concatemerized by using at least one non-nucleic acid moiety. In one aspect, the at least one non- nucleic acid moiety may react with regions or features near the 5' terminus and / or near the 3' terminus of the linear polyribonucleotide for circularization in order to cyclize or concatemerized the linear polyribonucleotide for circularization. In another aspect, the at least one non-nucleic acid moiety may be located in or linked to or near the 5' terminus and / or the 3' terminus of the linear polyribonucleotide for circularization. The non-nucleic acid moieties contemplated may be homologous or heterologous. As a non-limiting example, the non-nucleic acid moiety may be a linkage such as a hydrophobic linkage, ionic linkage, a biodegradable linkage, and / or a cleavable linkage. As another non-limiting example, the non-nucleic acid moiety is a ligation moiety. As yet another non-limiting example, the non-nucleic acid moiety may be an oligonucleotide or a peptide moiety, such as an aptamer or a non- nucleic acid linker as described herein.In some embodiments, the linear polyribonucleotide for circularization is synthesized using IVT and an RNA polymerase, where the nucleotide mixture used for IVT may contain an excess ofguanosine monophosphate relative to guanosine triphosphate to preferentially produce RNA with a 5’ monophosphate; the purified IVT product may be circularized using a splint DNA.In some embodiments, a linear polyribonucleotide for circularization is cyclized or concatemerized due to a non-nucleic acid moiety that causes an attraction between atoms, molecular surfaces at, near or linked to the 5' and 3' ends of the linear polyribonucleotide for circularization. As a non-limiting example, one or more linear polyribonucleotides for circularization may be cyclized or concatemerized by intermolecular forces or intramolecular forces. Non-limiting examples of intermolecular forces include dipole-dipole forces, dipole-induced dipole forces, induced dipole- induced dipole forces, Van der Waals forces, and London dispersion forces. Non-limiting examples of intramolecular forces include covalent bonds, metallic bonds, ionic bonds, resonant bonds, agnostic bonds, dipolar bonds, conjugation, hyperconjugation and antibonding.In some embodiments, a linear polyribonucleotide for circularization may include a ribozyme RNA sequence near the 5' terminus and near the 3' terminus. The ribozyme RNA sequence may covalently link to a peptide when the sequence is exposed to the remainder of the ribozyme. In one aspect, the peptides covalently linked to the ribozyme RNA sequence near the 5' terminus and the 3 'terminus may associate with each other causing a linear polyribonucleotide for circularization to cyclize or concatemerized. In another aspect, the peptides covalently linked to the ribozyme RNA near the 5' terminus and the 3' terminus may cause the linear primary construct or linear mRNA to cyclize or concatemerized after being subjected to ligated using various methods known in the art such as, but not limited to, protein ligation. Non-limiting examples of ribozymes for use in the linear primary constructs or linear RNA of the present invention or a non-exhaustive listing of methods to incorporate and / or covalently link peptides are described in US patent application No. US20030082768, the contents of which is here in incorporated by reference in its entirety.In some embodiments, a linear polyribonucleotide for circularization may include a 5' triphosphate of the nucleic acid converted into a 5' monophosphate, e.g., by contacting the 5' triphosphate with RNA 5' pyrophosphohydrolase (RppH) or an ATP diphosphohydrolase (apyrase). In some embodiments, the 5’ end of at least a portion of the linear polyribonucleotides includes a monophosphate moiety. In some embodiments, the population of polyribonucleotides including circular and linear polyribonucleotides is contacted with RppH prior to digesting at least a portion of the linear polyribonucleotides with a 5’ exonuclease and / or a 3’ exonuclease. Alternately, converting the 5' triphosphate of the linear polyribonucleotide for circularization into a 5' monophosphate may occur by a two-step reaction including: (a) contacting the 5' nucleotide of the linear polyribonucleotide for circularization with a phosphatase (e.g., Antarctic Phosphatase, Shrimp Alkaline Phosphatase, or Calf Intestinal Phosphatase) to remove all three phosphates; and (b) contacting the 5' nucleotide after step (a) with a kinase (e.g., Polynucleotide Kinase) that adds a single phosphate.In some embodiments, circularization efficiency of the circularization methods provided herein is at least about 10%, at least about 15%, at least about 20%, at least about 25%, at least about 30%, at least about 35%, at least about 40%, at least about 45%, at least about 50%, at least about 60%, at least about 70%, at least about 80%, at least about 90%, at least about 95%, or 100%. In some embodiments, the circularization efficiency of the circularization methods provided herein is at leastabout 40%. In some embodiments, the circularization method provided has a circularization efficiency of between about 10% and about 100%; for example, the circularization efficiency may be about 15%, about 20%, about 25%, about 30%, about 35%, about 40%, about 45%, about 50%, about 55%, about 60%, about 65%, about 70%, about 75%, about 80%, about 85%, about 90%, about 95%, and about 99%. In some embodiments, the circularization efficiency is between about 20% and about 80%. In some embodiments, the circularization efficiency is between about 30% and about 60%. In some embodiments the circularization efficiency is about 40%.In some embodiments, the circular polyribonucleotide includes an internal splicing element that when replicated the spliced ends are joined together. Some examples may include miniature introns (<100 nt) with splice site sequences and short inverted repeats (30-40 nt) such as AluSq2, AluJr, and AluSz, inverted sequences in flanking introns, Alu elements in flanking introns, and motifs found in (suptable4 enriched motifs) c / s-sequence elements proximal to back splice events such as sequences in the 200 bp preceding (upstream of) or following (downstream from) a back splice site with flanking exons. In some embodiments, the linear polyribonucleotide includes at least one repetitive nucleotide sequence described elsewhere herein as an internal splicing element. In such embodiments, the repetitive nucleotide sequence may include repeated sequences from the Alu family of introns. In some embodiments, a splicing-related ribosome binding protein can regulate circular polyribonucleotide biogenesis (e.g., the Muscle blind and Quaking (QKI) splicing factors).In some embodiments, the linear polyribonucleotide may include canonical splice sites that flank head-to-tail junctions of the circular polyribonucleotide.In some embodiments, the linear polyribonucleotide may include a bulge-helix-bulge motif, including a 4-base pair stem flanked by two 3-nucleotide bulges. Cleavage occurs at a site in the bulge region, generating characteristic fragments with terminal 5'-hydroxyl group and 2', 3'-cyclic phosphate. Circularization proceeds by nucleophilic attack of the 5'-OH group onto the 2', 3'-cyclic phosphate of the same molecule forming a 3', 5'-phosphodiester bridge.In some embodiments, the linear polyribonucleotide may include a multimeric repeating RNA sequence that harbors a HPR element. The HPR includes a 2',3'-cyclic phosphate and 5'-OH termini. The HPR element self-processes the 5'- and 3'-ends of the linear linear polyribonucleotide, thereby ligating the ends together.In some embodiments, the linear polyribonucleotide may include a sequence that mediates selfligation. In one embodiment, the linear polyribonucleotide may include a HDV sequence, e.g., HDV replication domain conserved sequence, GGCUCAUCUCGACAAGAGGCGGCAGUCCUCAGUACUCUUACUCUUUUCUGUAAAGAGGAGAC UGCUGGACUCGCCGCCCAAGUUCGAGCAUGAGCC (Beeharry et al 2004) (SEQ ID NO: 412) or GGCUAGAGGCGGCAGUCCUCAGUACUCUUACUCUUUUCUGUAAAGAGGAGACUGCUGGACUC GCCGCCCGAGCC (SEQ ID NO: 413), to self-ligate. In one embodiment, the linear polyribonucleotide may include loop E sequence (e.g., in PSTVd) to self-ligate.

According to certain embodiments, multiple doses of a composition of a nucleic acid molecule described herein may be administered to asubject over a defined time course. The methods according to this aspect of the invention include sequentially administering to a subject multiple doses of a composition of a nucleic acid molecule described herein (e.g., a circular polyribonucleotide, a linear polyribonucleotide, a circular polydeoxyribonucleotide, a linear polydeoxyribonucleotide) (e.g., in a pharmaceutical or veterinary composition). As used herein, “sequentially administering” means that each dose of composition of a nucleic acid molecule described herein is administered to the subject at a different point in time, e.g., on different days separated by a predetermined interval (e.g., hours, days, weeks or months). In some embodiments, the present invention provides methods which include sequentially administering to the subject a single initial dose of a composition of a nucleic acid molecule described herein, followed by one or more secondary doses of the composition, and optionally followed by one or more tertiary doses of the composition.The terms “initial dose,” “secondary doses,” and “tertiary doses,” refer to the temporal sequence of administration of a composition of a nucleic acid molecule described herein. Thus, the “initial dose” is the dose which is administered at the beginning of the treatment regimen; the “secondary doses” are the doses which are administered after the initial dose; and the “tertiary doses” are the doses which are administered after the secondary doses. The initial, secondary, and tertiary doses may all contain the same amount of a composition of a nucleic acid molecule described herein, and in certain embodiments, may differ from one another in terms of frequency of administration. In certain embodiments, the amount of a composition of a nucleic acid molecule described herein contained in the initial, secondary and / or tertiary doses varies from one another (e.g., adjusted up or down as appropriate) during the course of treatment. In certain embodiments, one or more (e.g., 2, 3, 4, or 5) doses are administered at the beginning of the treatment regimen as “loading doses” followed by subsequent doses that are administered on a less frequent basis (e.g., “maintenance doses”).In certain embodiments, each secondary and / or tertiary dose is administered after the immediately preceding dose. The phrase “the immediately preceding dose,” as used herein, means, in a sequence of multiple administrations, the dose of the composition of a nucleic acid molecule described herein which is administered to a subject prior to the administration of the very next dose in the sequence with no intervening doses. In certain embodiments, each secondary and / or tertiary dose is administered every day, every 2 days, 3 days, 4 days, 5 days, 6 days, or 7 days after the immediately preceding dose. In certain embodiments, each secondary and / or tertiary dose is administered every 0.5 weeks, 1 week, 2 weeks, 3 weeks, or 4 weeks after the immediately preceding dose.The methods according to this aspect of the invention may include administering to a subject any number of secondary and / or tertiary doses of a composition of a nucleic acid molecule described herein. For example, in certain embodiments, only a single secondary dose is administered to the subject. In other embodiments, two or more (e.g., 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or more) secondary doses are administered to the subject. Likewise, in certain embodiments, only a single tertiary dose is administered to the subject. In other embodiments, two or more (e.g., 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or more) tertiary doses are administered to the subject.In certain embodiments, the frequency at which the secondary and / or tertiary doses are administered to a subject can vary over the course of the treatment regimen. The frequency of administration may also be adjusted during the course of treatment.In some embodiments, the method includes providing (e.g., administering) at least a first composition and a second composition to the cells, tissue, or subject (e.g., a mammal, e.g., a human).

A naked delivery formulation delivers a circular polyribonucleotide to a cell without the aid of a carrier and without covalent modification of the circular polyribonucleotide or partial or complete encapsulation of the circular polyribonucleotide.A naked delivery formulation is a formulation that is free from a carrier and wherein the circular polyribonucleotide is without a covalent modification that binds a moiety that aids in delivery to a cell and the circular polyribonucleotide is not partially or completely encapsulated. In some embodiments, a circular polyribonucleotide without covalent modification that binds to a moiety that aids in delivery to a cell may be a polyribonucleotide that is not covalently bound to a moiety, such as a protein, small molecule, a particle, a polymer, or a biopolymer that aids in delivery to a cell. In some embodiments, circular polyribonucleotides may be delivered in a delivery formulation with protamine or a protamine salt (e.g., protamine sulfate).A polyribonucleotide without covalent modification that binds to a moiety that aids in delivery to a cell may not contain a modified phosphate group. For example, a polyribonucleotide without covalent modification that binds to a moiety that aids in delivery to a cell may not contain phosphorothioate, phosphoroselenates, boranophosphates, boranophosphate esters, hydrogen phosphonates, phosphoramidates, phosphorodiamidates, alkyl or aryl phosphonates, or phosphotriesters.In some embodiments, a naked delivery formulation may be free of any or all of: transfection reagents, cationic carriers, carbohydrate carriers, nanoparticle carriers, or protein carriers. For example, a naked delivery formulation may be free from phytoglycogen octenyl succinate, phytoglycogen beta-dextrin, anhydride-modified phytoglycogen beta-dextrin, lipofectamine, polyethylenimine, poly(trimethylenimine), poly(tetramethylenimine), polypropylenimine, aminoglycoside-polyamine, dideoxy-diamino-b-cyclodextrin, spermine, spermidine, poly(2- dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate, poly(lysine), poly(histidine), poly(arginine), cationized gelatin, dendrimers, chitosan, 1 ,2-Dioleoyl-3-Trimethylammonium-Propane (DOTAP), N-[1 -(2,3-dioleoyloxy)propyl]-N,N,N- trimethylammonium chloride (DOTMA), l-[2-(oleoyloxy)ethyl]-2-oleyl-3-(2- hydroxyethyl)imidazolinium chloride (DOTIM), 2,3-dioleyloxy-N-[2(sperminecarboxamido)ethyl]-N,N- dimethyl-l-propanaminium trifluoroacetate (DOSPA), 3B-[N-(N\N'-Dimethylaminoethane)- carbamoyl]Cholesterol Hydrochloride (DC-Cholesterol HCI), diheptadecylamidoglycyl spermidine (DOGS), N,N-distearyl-N,N-dimethylammonium bromide (DDAB), N-(l,2-dimyristyloxyprop-3-yl)-N,N- dimethyl-N- hydroxyethyl ammonium bromide (DMRIE), N,N-dioleyl-N,N-dimethylammonium chloride (DODAC), human serum albumin (HSA), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), high- density lipoprotein (HDL), or globulin.A naked delivery formulation may include a non-carrier excipient.

In some embodiments, a composition of the disclosure includes a linear polyribonucleotide and a carrier.In certain embodiments, a composition includes a circular polyribonucleotide as described herein in a vesicle or other membrane-based carrier. In certain embodiments, a composition includes a linear polyribonucleotide as described herein in a vesicle or other membrane-based carrier.In other embodiments, a composition includes the circular polyribonucleotide in or via a cell, vesicle or other membrane-based carrier. In other embodiments, a composition includes the linear polyribonucleotide in or via a cell, vesicle or other membrane-based carrier. In one embodiment, a composition includes the circular polyribonucleotide in liposomes or other similar vesicles. In one embodiment, a composition includes the linear polyribonucleotide in liposomes or other similar vesicles. Liposomes are spherical vesicle structures composed of a uni- or multilamellar lipid bilayer surrounding internal aqueous compartments and a relatively impermeable outer lipophilic phospholipid bilayer. Liposomes may be anionic, neutral, or cationic. Liposomes are biocompatible, nontoxic, can deliver both hydrophilic and lipophilic drug molecules, protect their cargo from degradation by plasma enzymes, and transport their load across biological membranes and the blood brain barrier (BBB) (see, e.g., Spuch and Navarro, Journal of Drug Delivery, vol. 2011 , Article ID 469679, 12 pages, 2011. doi:10.1155 / 2011 / 469679 for review).Vesicles can be made from several different types of lipids; however, phospholipids are most commonly used to generate liposomes as drug carriers. Methods for preparation of multilamellar vesicle lipids are known in the art (see for example U.S. Pat. No. 6,693,086, the teachings of which relating to multilamellar vesicle lipid preparation are incorporated herein by reference). Although vesicle formation can be spontaneous when a lipid film is mixed with an aqueous solution, it can alsobe expedited by applying force in the form of shaking by using a homogenizer, sonicator, or an extrusion apparatus (see, e.g., Spuch and Navarro, Journal of Drug Delivery, vol. 2011 , Article ID 469679, 12 pages, 2011. doi :10.1155 / 2011 / 469679 for review). Extruded lipids can be prepared by extruding through filters of decreasing size, as described in Templeton et al., Nature Biotech, 15:647- 652, 1997, the teachings of which relating to extruded lipid preparation are incorporated herein by reference.In certain embodiments, a composition of the disclosure includes a circular polyribonucleotide and lipid nanoparticles, for example lipid nanoparticles described herein. In certain embodiments, a composition of the disclosure includes a linear polyribonucleotide and lipid nanoparticles. Lipid nanoparticles are another example of a carrier that provides a biocompatible and biodegradable delivery system for a circular polyribonucleotide molecule as described herein. Lipid nanoparticles are another example of a carrier that provides a biocompatible and biodegradable delivery system for a linear polyribonucleotide molecule as described herein. Nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) are modified solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) that retain the characteristics of the SLN, improve drug stability and loading capacity, and prevent drug leakage. Polymer nanoparticles (PNPs) are an important component of drug delivery. These nanoparticles can effectively direct drug delivery to specific targets and improve drug stability and controlled drug release. Lipid-polymer nanoparticles (PLNs), a new type of carrier that combines liposomes and polymers, may also be employed. These nanoparticles possess the complementary advantages of PNPs and liposomes. A PLN is composed of a core-shell structure; the polymer core provides a stable structure, and the phospholipid shell offers good biocompatibility. As such, the two components increase the drug encapsulation efficiency rate, facilitate surface modification, and prevent leakage of water-soluble drugs.
