Why can RNA only be linear or circular? It can be branched! We made multi-tailed mRNA, and we had fun! Here is our story led by brilliant graduate student @HongyuChenChem: rdcu.be/dB7ck and his cartoon illustration👇@ChemistryMIT @broadinstitute
Thrilled to see our work on chemically and topologically engineered mRNA online! Using a chemo-enzymatic approach, we introduced multiple end-modified polyA tails on a single mRNA to boost its stability and translatability overtime. nature.com/articles/s41587-0…
