A method for the production of proteins used in the in vitro transcription (IVT) of messenger RNA (mRNA), wherein the proteins are evaluated for purity and efficacy by the efficiency with which mRNA synthetically derived therefrom, subsequently transfects cells and produces encoded proteins.

Enzyme based system for production of messenger RNA with increased transfection efficiency

Disclosed herein are methods for inducing immunity against a virus such as a coronavirus in the mucosal tissue of a patient, include administering a vaccine composition to the patient by oral administration (e.g., nasal injection, nasal inhalation, oral inhalation, and/or oral ingestion). Also disclosed are compositions for assaying the presence of anti-viral antibodies induced by the administered vaccine or the presence of viral proteins in a saliva sample include a stabilizing solution and may also include the use of aragonite particle beads. Compositions and methods are presented for prevention and/or treatment of a coronavirus disease wherein the composition comprises a recombinant entity. The recombinant entity is bivalent, comprising a nucleic acid encoding a coronavirus 2 nucleocapsid protein CoV2 nucleocapsid protein fused to an endosomal targeting sequence, and a nucleic acid encoding a CoV2 spike protein sequence optimized for cell surface expression.
