  • Patent number: 10729784
    Abstract: The present invention relates to expressing RNA in cells and, in particular, enhancing viability of cells in which RNA is to be expressed. Specifically, the present invention provides methods for expressing RNA in cells comprising the steps of preventing engagement of IFN receptor by extracellular IFN and inhibiting intracellular IFN signalling in the cells. Thus, preventing engagement of IFN receptor by extracellular IFN and inhibiting intracellular IFN signalling in the cells allows repetitive transfer of RNA into the cells.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 11, 2019
    Date of Patent: August 4, 2020
    Assignees: TRON TRANSLATIONALE ONKOLOGIE AN DER UNIVERSITATSM, BIONTECH RNA PHARMACEUTICALS GMBH
    Inventors: Ugur Sahin, Tim Beissert, Marco Poleganov, Stephanie Herz, Lars Koste
