The Genentech group used IVT-ready linearized ENFINIA DNA templates synthesized with 3 sizes of PolyA tail lengths (90, 110, 160 nt) as a starting IVT material for eGFP production to study the length effect on translation efficiency and stability. On day 1 the construct with 160 PolyA showed a ⬆️ percentage of cells expressing eGFP than the those with shorter tails, demonstrating a positive correlation between PolyA tail length and protein expression. We're proud of ELEGEN's cell-free gene synthesis supply of long, NGS-verified, complex DNA shipped in as little as 6 days to support this study! #EnfiniaDNA #IVTreadyDNA American Chemical Society #AnalyticalChemistry
A very nice paper by Julien Camperi and the Genentech team characterizing the #mRNA impurities generated by IVT. The paper evaluated 4 mutant and 1 WT T7 RNA polymerase and showed the different impurity species they generated - abortive transcripts (prepeak), long 3’-loopback dsRNA (postpeak), noncovalent HMW species (detected by mass photometry), 3′-heterogeneity transcripts and short 3′-loopback. Mutant T7 RNAPs were found to generate less abortive transcripts which led to higher protein expression. HMW species were found to negatively impact protein translation and increase innate immune response. They also discovered that when detecting dsRNA from m1Ψ-modified mRNAs, the ELISA assay did not detect dsRNA while mass photometry showed positive results. This could be attributed to a technical artifact in the assay in that the mAb J2 used is not specific and/or sensitive enough to capture m1Ψ-nucleosidemodified mRNAs, or that m1Ψ-modified nucleosides cause changes in mRNA conformation, affecting the detection by ELISA.
