mRNA Therapeutics and mRNA Vaccines Industry: Current Scenario and Future Trends

Roots Analysis

Messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) is a single-stranded molecule that is complementary to a gene’s DNA. It is important in the process of protein synthesis because mRNA is responsible for transferring genetic information from DNA to ribosomes, which then decodes the genetic information into a protein.

mRNA Synthesis: ManufacturingProcess of Modern Revolutionary Molecule

Roots Analysis

It transfers genetic information form to DNA to ribosomes, a specialized structure, or organelle, which decodes genetic information into a protein. With the help of genetic engineering, synthetic mRNAs can express proteins, as they structurally resemble a natural mRNA.

RNA Therapeutics: A Novel Approach to Treating Diseases

Roots Analysis

In the last few years, researchers have become interested in using in vitro transcribed (IVT) mRNA as a drug delivery agent. It is important to highlight that IVT mRNAs are structurally similar to natural mRNAs and can be used to express proteins through genetic engineering.
