Oz Biosciences EPO Gene Replacement mRNA

EPO mRNAs have been designed to produce high expression level of erythropoietin protein. This mRNA encodes for the human Erythropoietin protein, an hormone that controls erythropoiesis. EPO acts as a hematopoietic growth factor and stimulates the synthesis of red blood cells in the bone marrow. EPO mRNA is commonly used for gene replacement and serves as model for expression of any secreted protein. Its expression can easily be evaluated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) while EPO's effect on red blood cell production is detected by measuring reticulocyte levels and the hematocrit from whole blood using a hematocrit assay. Measurement of EPO are rather straightforward and well established. EPO mRNAs resemble fully matured mRNAs with 5' cap1 structure and 3' polyA tail, therefore ready to be translated by the ribosome. mRNA transfection provides several advantages over plasmid DNA (pDNA) delivery. It does not require nuclear uptake for being expressed since translation of mRNA occurs directly into cytoplasm. Indeed, nuclear delivery (transport through nuclear membrane) is one the principal barriers for transfecting slow or non-dividing cells and consequently, mRNA transfection is particularly attractive for such purpose. This approach presents also the advantage of being non-integrative which is particularly appealing for stem cells, regenerative medicine or vaccine fields. Contrary to pDNA, mRNA cannot lead to genetic insertion causing mutations. Moreover, the protein expression from the mRNA is promoter-independent and faster than with DNA.

MRNA18 does not bear any additional nucleotide modifications

MRNA19 is modified with 5-methoxyuridine (5moU) to reduce innate immune response

MRNA4 is modified with N1-methyl-pseudouridine (N1-mψ) to reduce innate immune response
