Vaccination responses need to be rapid, efficacious and cost-effective if they are to outpace new viral threats emerging across the globe, says Jian He (Jason) , Chemistry, Manufacturing and Controls (CMC) Head, WuXi Vaccines. This would give more people much faster access to more effective vaccines.

The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the development of mRNA-based vaccines, and its influence has now extended to DNA-based shots as well, with Zydus Cadila’s ZyCoV-D getting emergency use authorisation in India. Proponents of the approach claim that DNA vaccines may have advantages over other technologies like mRNA.

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.

Coding RNAs include messenger RNA (mRNA) and short interfering RNA (siRNA), which encode proteins and silence gene expression, respectively. ASOs are short single-stranded nucleotides that bind to specific messenger RNAs and prevent the production of a particular protein.
