Description

Method for preparing N1-methyl pseudouridine triphosphate
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of biochemistry, and particularly relates to a method for preparing N1-methyl pseudouridine triphosphate.
Background
In the current field of vaccine development and production, mRNA vaccines are rapidly evolving. Compared with the traditional inactivated vaccine and attenuated vaccine, the mRNA vaccine has the advantages of short production period, higher safety and the like. More importantly, mRNA vaccines can be rapidly updated for iteration in development, and thus are superior in coping with ever-emerging viruses such as new coronavirus mutants.
However, the development of mRNA vaccines also faces some difficulties, one of the biggest challenges being the immunogenicity of mRNA. mRNA as a foreign substance, when entering the human body, activates the immune system of the human body, and thus causes an inflammatory reaction caused by the mRNA itself, and may cause the mRNA to be cleared by the immune system without functioning. The introduction of naturally modified nucleotides is one of the effective means to reduce the immunogenicity of mRNA vaccines.
Pseudouridine (Pseudouridine) is the most abundant modified nucleoside on RNA, also known as the "fifth nucleoside" of RNA. In 2005, katalin Karik et al found that the introduction of pseudouridine into RNA reduced its immunogenicity, and that the immunogenicity of RNA decreased with increasing proportion of pseudouridine introduced. In 2008, katalin Karik et al also found that complete replacement of uridine mRNA with pseudouridine not only greatly reduced mRNA immunogenicity, but also improved mRNA stability and enhanced translation ability. In 2015, oliwia Andries et al found that complete replacement of uridine with N1-methyl pseudouridine reduced mRNA immunogenicity and enhanced mRNA protein expression capacity more than complete replacement of uridine with pseudouridine.
These studies suggest that the introduction of pseudouridine or N1-methyl pseudouridine into mRNA may be effective in reducing the immunogenicity of mRNA vaccines, enhancing the stability of mRNA, and enhancing its protein expression ability.
Two new types of coronal mRNA vaccines have been marketed: mRNA-1273 (Moderna) and BNT162b2 (pyro-Biontech) each replaced Uridine Triphosphate (UTP) with N1-methyl pseudouridine triphosphate (N1-Met- φTP). While the new crown mRNA vaccine CVnCoV of the german vaccine CureVac was very low in potency, only 48%, this result has led to a broad proposition, presumably due to the lack of modified nucleosides for CVnCoV. It follows that the use of pseudouridine or N1-methyl pseudouridine substitution would be a trend towards mRNA vaccine production.
N1-methyl pseudouridine triphosphate (N1-Met- φTP) is difficult to obtain and expensive, such as N1-methyl pseudouridine triphosphate sodium salt of 100 mM, sold at a price of about 20 μL/935 yuan. Currently, N1-methyl pseudouridine triphosphate is generally synthesized chemically. The chemical synthesis method is a multi-step process, and in order to realize regioselectivity and stereoselectivity, the process of protecting and deprotecting the group is needed, the operation steps are complex, the cost is high, toxic and harmful substances are easy to generate, and the environment is polluted. The enzymatic synthesis is more and more paid attention to due to the factors of high regioselectivity, stereoselectivity, mild reaction conditions, green environmental protection, no pollution and the like, but the enzymatic synthesis method of the N1-methyl pseudouridine triphosphate is not yet seen at present, and meanwhile, the enzymatic synthesis method also has high substrate conversion rate so as to develop the application of the N1-methyl pseudouridine triphosphate in preparation and production.
Therefore, the field needs to develop a method for preparing N1-methyl pseudouridine triphosphate, which is simple and easy to operate, accords with the production principle of green chemistry, can ensure better substrate conversion rate while protecting ecological environment, and is beneficial to the large-scale production and application of N1-methyl pseudouridine triphosphate.
