Beyond mRNA: how advances in analytical techniques are enabling a revolution in the RNA drug landscape by Kerstin Pohl | 0 CommentsCurrently, there are 3 main types of in vitro transcribed (IVT) RNA drugs. Two of these—conventional messenger RNA (mRNA) and base-modified mRNA (bmRNA), which incorporates chemically modified nucleotides—are non-replicating. The third type is self-replicating RNA (srRNA), which is based on an engineered viral genome but devoid of viral structural protein genes. Its self-replicating ability makes srRNA a promising tool for new therapeutic drugs.
