The rise of mRNA technology has created new possibilities for developing vaccines, cancer therapies, and treatments for genetic diseases. However, producing mRNA still faces challenges, especially when preparing DNA templates for in vitro transcription (IVT). Traditional plasmid-based methods are often slow, inconsistent, and difficult to scale. In this webinar, Galit Meshulam-Simon, Nicholas McGlincy, and Ankur Sarkar will discuss a cell-free approach for producing high-complexity, linear, IVT-ready DNA templates, enabling faster and more consistent mRNA synthesis.
Topics to be covered:
- Major challenges in robust mRNA production
- A robust, cell-free approach for producing linear IVT-ready DNA templates
- How linear IVT-ready DNA templates perform compared to traditional plasmid-based methods
