Incorporation of noncanonical base Z yields modified mRNA with minimal immunogenicity and improved translational capacity in mammalian cells

Summary: Chemically modified mRNAs hold great potential for therapeutic applications in vivo. Currently, the base modification scheme largely preserves the canonical Watson-Crick base pairing, thus missing one mode of mRNA modulation by altering its secondary structure. Here we report the incorporat...
