Introduction Synthetic mRNA produced by in vitro transcription (IVT) is the active pharmaceutical ingredient of approved vaccines and of many drugs under development. IVT mRNA typically contains several hundred bases of non-coding untranslated regions (UTRs) that are involved in the stabilization and translation of the mRNA. Remarkably, new research has discovered that these UTRs can be virtually eliminated without compromising translation of the encoded protein of interest. ...

There is widespread interest in chemically modified mRNA (modRNA) synthesized by in vitro transcription (IVT) reactions, wherein one or more of the natural (aka wild-type) A, G, C, and U nucleotide 5’-triphosphates is replaced by base-modified analogs.
