Abstract
The successful use of mRNA vaccines during the Covid-19 pandemic has created a boom in mRNA therapeutic research and development. The efficacy of mRNA vaccines and therapies relies on the quality of the synthesized molecules – a key feature of which is the 5′-end cap modification. The development of analytical methods for assessing mRNA quality needs to be prioritized to enable manufacturing development, process control, and rapid assessment of batch quality before release. In this review, we provide an overview of the latest techniques in the analysis of mRNA 5′ capping. We also discuss future possibilities and challenges in quality control of mRNA products at scale.
期刊介绍：
Current Opinion in Systems Biology is a new systematic review journal that aims to provide specialists with a unique and educational platform to keep up-to-date with the expanding volume of information published in the field of Systems Biology. It publishes polished, concise and timely systematic reviews and opinion articles. In addition to describing recent trends, the authors are encouraged to give their subjective opinion on the topics discussed. As this is such a broad discipline, we have determined themed sections each of which is reviewed once a year. The following areas will be covered by Current Opinion in Systems Biology: -Genomics and Epigenomics -Gene Regulation -Metabolic Networks -Cancer and Systemic Diseases -Mathematical Modelling -Big Data Acquisition and Analysis -Systems Pharmacology and Physiology -Synthetic Biology -Stem Cells, Development, and Differentiation -Systems Biology of Mold Organisms -Systems Immunology and Host-Pathogen Interaction -Systems Ecology and Evolution
