The present invention relates to a novel regulatory element. The regulatory element according to one embodiment is capable of increasing
RNA stability or mRNA translation of a transcription product of a
target gene, thereby being capable of increasing the expression level of the
target protein, and can be effectively used in systems requiring precise control of
gene expression, such as
gene therapy, vaccine development, and production of
protein therapeutics. Furthermore, the regulatory element of the present application exhibits excellent stability-increasing ability and translation-regulating ability not only in unmodified
RNA but also in
RNA containing a modified base, and thus can be effectively used in therapeutic mRNA or vaccine platforms requiring base modification.
