Embodiment 1

[0158] DNA template preparation

[0159] 1) PCR method to prepare luciferase (Luc) and erythropoietin (EPO) DNA templates, and carry out in a 96-well PCR instrument.

[0160] PCR products include at least

[0161] A) a promoter sequence (any one of T7 promoter, T3 promoter or SP6 promoter);

[0162] B) a 5'UTR comprising at least one Kozak sequence;

[0163] C) 3'UTR;

[0164] D) Luc or EPO coding sequence;

[0165] E) polyA tail.

[0166] The specific sequences involved in the present invention are shown in Table 1.

[0167] Table 1

[0168]

[0169]

[0170] Amplify the DNA template according to the following reaction system:

[0171] The reaction volume is 50 μL (the reaction volume of a single tube, and multiple tubes are simultaneously reacted at one time), and the specific reaction system is shown in Table 2.

[0172] Table 2 Reaction system

[0173] component volume PrimeSTAR Max Premix (2×) 25μl PrimeSTAR Max DNA Polymerase 1μl ...

Embodiment 2

[0314] According to the single-type modified or multiple-type modified mRNA encoding EPO of the present invention, its immunogenicity is detected, and the evaluation standard is the modified mRNA immunoprecipitation test (RIP analysis) to detect Toll-like receptors TRL3, TRL7, TRL8 and RIG-1 and mRNA The level of binding; the specific steps are as follows:

[0315] cell transfection

[0316] About 24 hours after inoculation of 293T cells (purchased from the cell bank of the Chinese Academy of Sciences), the state of the cells in the 6-well plate was observed, and the confluence was 88% to 92%. In a biological safety cabinet, prepare 90% (volume percent) DMEM+10% (volume percent) FBS medium. 30 min before transfection, the medium in the well plate was discarded, and 1 ml of fresh medium was added to each well, namely 90% (volume percentage) DMEM+10% (volume percentage) FBS medium.

[0317] Preparation of transfection system: take 200μl opti-MEM, add 10μg test substance (conce...

Embodiment 3

[0330] According to the single-modified or multi-modified mRNA encoding EPO of the present invention, its immunogenicity is detected, and the evaluation standard is the level of TNFα and IL-8 in serum after intramuscular injection of the modified mRNA into mice.

[0331] 6-8-week-old balbc mice (purchased from Beijing Weitong Lihua Laboratory Animal Technology Co., Ltd.) were kept under SPF conditions and kept in ventilated cages under 12h light and 12h dark cycles. Various types of modified EPO mRNA were injected intramuscularly into balb / c mice, and the injection dose of each mouse was 100 μg. After 24 hours, the orbital blood was collected from the mice, and the serum was separated. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (elisa) was performed with mouse IL-8 and TNFa kit (RayBio).

[0332] The result is as Figures 46 to 63 As shown, in mice, the immunogenicity of the mRNA synthesized by the modification strategy provided by the present invention is far less than that of the un...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of nucleic acid modification, and in particular relates to a modified nucleic acid and its application. Background technique [0002] As early as the 1970s, scientists discovered m6A modification in RNA, but its function has not been well revealed due to technical constraints. Until 2012, scientists' studies showed that m6A modification is related to mRNA stability, splicing processing, translation, and microRNA processing. In addition, m6A is also related to stem cell fate and biological rhythm, and can promote stem cells from a state of self-renewal to cell differentiation. Researchers found that methylation shortens the half-life of mRNA and reduces its abundance. It can be said that m6A modification affects almost every step of RNA metabolism. [0003] Although substantial progress has been made in the study of m6A modification in mRNA, there are still some technical challenges and basic scientific pro...
