ENGINEERED NUCLEIC ACIDS AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF

摘要

Provided are compositions and methods for delivering biological moieties such as modified nucleic acids into cells to kill or reduce the growth of viruses. Such compositions and methods include the use of modified messenger RNAs, and are useful to treat or prevent viral infection, or to improve a subject's heath or wellbeing.

主权项

1. A pharmaceutical composition comprising:
i) an effective amount of a synthetic messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) encoding an anti-viral polypeptide (AVP); and ii) a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier,wherein the synthetic mRNA comprises at least one nucleoside modification, andwherein the anti-viral polypeptide is about 6 to about 100 amino acids in length.
