Protein-Based Systems for Translational Regulation of Synthetic mRNAs in Mammalian Cells

Synthetic mRNAs, which are produced by in vitro transcription, have been recently attracting attention because they can express any transgenes without the risk of insertional mutagenesis. Although current synthetic mRNA medicine is not designed for spatiotemporal or cell-selective regulation, many p...

Protein-Based Systems for Translational Regulation of Synthetic mRNAs in Mammalian Cells
description Synthetic mRNAs, which are produced by in vitro transcription, have been recently attracting attention because they can express any transgenes without the risk of insertional mutagenesis. Although current synthetic mRNA medicine is not designed for spatiotemporal or cell-selective regulation, many preclinical studies have developed the systems for the translational regulation of synthetic mRNAs. Such translational regulation systems will cope with high efficacy and low adverse effects by producing the appropriate amount of therapeutic proteins, depending on the context. Protein-based regulation is one of the most promising approaches for the translational regulation of synthetic mRNAs. As synthetic mRNAs can encode not only output proteins but also regulator proteins, all components of protein-based regulation systems can be delivered as synthetic mRNAs. In addition, in the protein-based regulation systems, the output protein can be utilized as the input for the subsequent regulation to construct multi-layered gene circuits, which enable complex and sophisticated regulation. In this review, I introduce what types of proteins have been used for translational regulation, how to combine them, and how to design effective gene circuits.
