Unless defined otherwise, all terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention belongs and, if conflict with the meaning of the terms used herein, It follows the definition used in the specification. Further, the detailed description of known functions and configurations that may unnecessarily obscure the subject matter of the present invention will be omitted. Throughout the specification, when an element is referred to as "including " an element, it is understood that the element may include other elements as well, without departing from the other elements unless specifically stated otherwise.

The present invention relates to a messenger RNA nanoparticle which is introduced into a cell and promotes the expression of a specific protein. The messenger RNA nanoparticle includes a repeated base sequence for the expression of a specific protein. The messenger RNA nanoparticle has a certain shape But preferably has a spherical shape as a whole and has a diameter of 30 to 200 nm. The messenger RNA nanoparticles are formed as a single strand of messenger RNA is twisted and tangled with each other. The protein that promotes the expression of the messenger RNA nanoparticles stimulates the immune system of the cell, so that the intracellular immune response can be induced through the injection of the messenger RNA nanoparticles to treat various diseases. The messenger RNA nanoparticles consist of only biomaterials and are not toxic to the body. They can eliminate the process of passing the nuclear membrane during protein expression and have resistance to nucleic acid degrading enzyme (RNase), thereby improving protein expression efficiency. In addition, the messenger RNA nanoparticles have a 5'-cap structure and a 3'-poly A tail structure by omitting the capping process at the 5 'end and the polyadenylation process at the 3' end in the process of protein expression from the messenger RNA in vivo And the manufacturing process is simple, so that the manufacturing cost can be reduced.

A method for producing messenger RNA nanoparticles as described above will be described below. The messenger RNA nanoparticles are preferably prepared by the following production method, but are not limited thereto.

The method for producing the messenger RNA nanoparticles comprises the steps of: preparing a promoter, which is a binding site at which the RNA polymerase starts polymerization at the time of transcription, a ribosomal binding site (RBS), which is a ribosome binding site of the generated messenger RNA, Stranded plasmid DNA comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding a nucleotide sequence encoding the double-stranded plasmid DNA; A transcription step of transcribing the plasmid DNA using an RNA polymerase to produce a long single stranded messenger RNA containing a repeated base sequence for expression of a specific protein; And incubating the reaction solution containing the single stranded messenger RNA at a predetermined temperature for a predetermined time so that the messenger RNA of the single strand is twisted and tangled to form messenger RNA nanoparticles through self-assembly . In the method for preparing messenger RNA nanoparticles, the capping process at the 5 'end and the polyadenylation process at the 3' end are omitted, thereby simplifying the manufacturing process.

In the DNA production step, a DNA containing genetic information of a protein to be expressed is generated. In the DNA production step, a promoter region for polymerization of an RNA polymerase and a ribosomal binding sequence ) And a nucleotide sequence containing genetic information for expression of a specific protein (for example, green fluorescence protein, GFP) are sequentially generated in a circular double-stranded plasmid DNA. Plasmid DNA for specific protein expression is transcribed and self-assembled to form messenger RNA nanoparticles, and the messenger RNA nanoparticles are introduced into human cells to express specific proteins.

In the transcription step, the plasmid DNA generated in the DNA production step is subjected to rolling circle transcription (RCT) using an RNA polymerase to obtain a long DNA sequence containing a repeated nucleotide sequence for the expression of a specific protein This is the step of generating single stranded messenger RNA.

The self-assembling step includes incubating the single-stranded messenger RNA-containing reaction solution at a predetermined temperature for a predetermined period of time, so that the single-stranded messenger RNA is twisted and tangled with each other to self-assemble the messenger RNA nanoparticles . In the self-assembly step, the messenger RNA strands are self-assembled through the tangling and twisting process, so that they are resistant to the nucleic acid degrading enzyme RNase. In the process of preparing the messenger RNA nanoparticles, the diameter of the messenger RNA nanoparticles containing the genetic information on the desired target protein can be controlled by controlling the amount of the plasmid DNA. As will be described in detail below, when the plasmid DNA and the RNA polymerase are mixed and reacted at a predetermined time and temperature, the RNA polymerase forms a long single-stranded messenger RNA through the RCT process as shown in FIG. Since the messenger RNA nanoparticles are generated by self-assembly while gradually twisting and tangling, messenger RNA nanoparticles can be easily generated with a small plasmid DNA using a one-step RCT. In order to protect the mRNA from protein expression from conventional messenger RNAs, 5 'end capping process and 3' end polyadenylation process are carried out after mRNA transcription to prevent protein expression. And the 3 'terminal polyadenylation process. The present invention relates to a method for producing a single-stranded messenger RNA, which comprises stranding a single strand of a messenger RNA to form nanoparticles through self-assembly, In the method for producing RNA nanoparticles, the protein can be effectively expressed by omitting the capping process at the 5 'end and the polyadenylation process at the 3' end, thereby simplifying the manufacturing method and achieving economical efficiency.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to Examples. However, these are only for the purpose of illustrating the present invention in more detail, but the scope of the present invention is not limited thereto.

<Example 3> Size and distribution of messenger RNA nanoparticles according to plasmid DNA concentration

1) The messenger RNA nanoparticles were prepared by changing the plasmid DNA concentration to 0.05 nM, 0.11 nM, 0.57 nM, 5.00 nM, and 25.00 nM in the production method of Example 2.

2) As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, when the concentration of the plasmid DNA is 0.05 nM or less, the nanoparticles are not formed. When the concentration of the plasmid DNA is 0.11 nM or more, the nanoparticles have a diameter of 30 to 200 nm. Generally, the diameters are increased, but after the concentration of the plasmid DNA exceeds 5 nM, the increase in the nanoparticle diameter and number is not large. The present invention aims at producing nanoparticles using a small amount of plasmid DNA, and preferably nanoparticles having a diameter of about 100 nm are preferred for cell penetration and pharmacological effects, so that 1 to 5 nM of plasmid DNA is preferably used .

Example 4: Size and morphology of messenger RNA nanoparticles

Spherical nanoparticles having a diameter of 100 to 200 nm can be identified from an SEM photograph (scale bar, 100 nm) of FIG. 4 a). It can be confirmed that the AFM photograph of FIG. 4 b) has a particle shape that is consistent with the SEM photograph.

Example 5: Identification of constituents of messenger RNA nanoparticles

1) Nanoparticles were prepared in the same manner as in Example 2 except that a ribonucleotide solution mix containing Cyanine 3-UTP (Enzo) was used. The concentrations of cyanine 3-UTP used were 5, 20 and 100 μM, respectively.

2) The nanoparticles prepared in 1) of Example 5 were incubated at room temperature under a condition of 1.2 wt% agarose gel in Tris-acetate-EDTA (TAE) buffer (40 mM Tris-acetate and 1 mM EDTA, pH 8.0 Biosesang) Gel electrophoresis was carried out, and the result was shown in Fig. 5 (a). In addition, the nanoparticles prepared in 1) of Example 5 were incubated at room temperature under a condition of 1.2 wt% agarose gel in Tris-acetate-EDTA (TAE) buffer (40 mM Tris-acetate and 1 mM EDTA, pH 8.0 Biosesang) After dying with GelRed, gel electrophoresis was carried out and the result was shown in Fig. 5 (b). Lane 1 indicates a 1 kb DNA ladder, Lane 2 indicates a plasmid DNA, Lane 3, 5 and 7 indicate the results of a sample without addition of nanoparticles, and Lane 4, 6 and 8 show the results of nanoparticle samples (1 in Example 5) with Cyanine 3-UTP added at concentrations of 100, 20 and 5 μM, respectively.

3) Using the image cytometry of the nanoparticles prepared in the same manner as in Example 5, 1), it is shown in FIG. The concentrations of cyanine 3-UTP used were 0 (control), 5, and 20 μM, respectively.

4) By performing an RCT reaction in conjunction with Cy3-UTP, the nanoparticles are labeled with Cy3-UTP having an orange fluorescent wavelength, so that the nanoparticles are easily visually recognized under ultraviolet light. As shown in FIGS. 5 a) and 5 b), nanoparticles containing Cyanine 3-UTP are visually recognizable (see Lanes 4, 6 and 8), indicating that the nanoparticles are composed of RNA. In addition, as the concentration of cyanine 3-UTP increases through the image cytometry of FIG. 6, it can be seen that the nanoparticles are composed of RNA because they have strong fluorescence intensity.

Example 6: Confirmation of resistance to nucleic acid degrading enzyme

1) 50 ng of capped mRNA (1800 bp) (hereinafter referred to as Naked mRNA) containing a base sequence for Xef-1 protein expression and 0.54 amole (12 μg) of messenger RNA nanoparticles (mRNA- The cells were mixed with 10% FBS (fetal bovine serum, having a nucleic acid degrading enzyme), incubated at 37 ° C for 5 min and 1 hr, and then subjected to gel electrophoresis on 1% agarose gel to show Lane 1 (control (cntl)), Lane 2 was cultured in 2% FBS for 5 min, Lane 3 was cultured in 10% FBS for 5 min, Lane 4 was cultured in 2% FBS And Lane 5 is the result of a sample incubated in 10% FBS for 1 hour).

2) It can be seen from FIG. 7 that long-stranded Naked mRNA is easily degraded according to the concentration of nucleic acid degrading enzyme and reaction time. However, the mRNA-NPs formed by the stranded RNA strands are decomposed to some extent by the degrading enzyme It can be seen that a relatively large amount still remains. This demonstrates that messenger RNA nanoparticles are resistant to lytic enzymes.

<Example 7> Evaluation of protein expression ability of messenger RNA nanoparticles

1) PC-3 cells were cultured in RPMI 1640 (Welgene) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (Gibco), 100 units ml -1 of penicillin, 100 μg ml -1 of streptomycin and 1% antibiotic-antimycotic in humidified atmosphere with 5% CO 2 it is grown at a temperature of 37 ℃. For 24 hours before transfection, the cells are trypsinized with fresh medium (3 × 10 5 cells ml -1 ), diluted and transferred to 24-well plates (500 μl per well).

2) The messenger RNA nanoparticles prepared in Example 2 were diluted in OPTI-MEMI (Gibco), and then TransIT-X2 (Mirus), a transfection reagent, was further added and incubated at room temperature for 15 minutes, The mRNA-NPs complex forms a mRNA-NPs complex in which the transit-X2 envelopes the positively charged mRNA-NPs.

3) After forming mRNA-NPs complex, 2.10 × 10 5 mRNA-NPs are diluted in each well of the cells, and the cells are cultured in a humidified atmosphere with 5% CO 2 at 37 ° C. for 3 to 48 hours .

4) To obtain images of PC-3 cells expressing GFP, the cells are grown in 8-well cell culture chamber slides (SPL Life Science). All cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (MBiotech) and stained with 5 μg ml -1 of DAPI to confirm the position of the nucleus. A fluorescence microscope (Eclipse Ti (Nikon)) was used to obtain images of the transfected cells, the results of which are shown in Figures 8 and 9. 8 (a) and 8 (b) are fluorescence micrographs using different filters, showing the position of the nucleus from the blue color of a) and the GFP protein expression from the green signal of b). Bottom (mRNA-NPs) in FIGS. 8 a) and b) were fluorescence micrographs of cells treated with 0.6 fM mRNA-NPs complex and middle (Plasmid) was the same as that used for the production of mRNA- Top (Control) is a fluorescence microscope photograph of cells in which mRNA-NPs complex and plasmid DNA complex are not used. FIG. 8C is a photograph together showing the signals of a) and b). FIG. 9 is a fluorescence microscope photograph of cells treated with mRNA-NPs 0.1 fM produced by using 5 nM of plasmid DNA for rolling circle transfer. It is a composite of photographs taken using a filter.

5). It can be seen from FIG. 8 that the transgenic cells using transgenic RNA nanoparticles have a high frequency of emitting green light, so that a large number of green fluorescent proteins are generated (see mRNA-NPs). Plasmid DNA is used Transfected cells have a relatively low frequency of emitting green light, indicating that less green fluorescence protein is produced (see Plasmid). In FIG. 9, it can be seen that the transgenic RNA nanoparticles were used to transduce a green fluorescent protein (green) around the nucleus (blue).

FIG. 10 is a graph showing Cytometry analysis. As a graph showing the cytotoxic analysis, a sample (12 pM (navy) of plasmid DNA complex, 0.6 fM (red) and 0.1 fM (orange) of mRNA-NPs complex transcribed with 1 nM of the plasmid DNA), the intensity of light emitted and the time of expression vary. FIG. 10 shows that when the mRNA-NPs complex 0.6 fM is transfected, the intensity of light is strongest after 24 hours and the intensity is relatively strong after 40 hours (see red line). That is, when the herpes simplex RNA nanoparticles are transfected with the plasmid DNA, the intensity of the light is strong and the expression time is prolonged.
