Abstract

Provided are formulations, compositions and methods for delivering biological moieties such as modified nucleic acids into cells to modulate protein expression. Such compositions and methods include the delivery of biological moieties, and are useful for production of proteins.

Claims (14)

1. An isolated polynucleotide, said polynucleotide comprising SEQ ID NO: 7.

2. The polynucleotide of claim 1 , further comprising a 5′Cap1 structure and a polyA tail of approximately 160 nucleotides in length.

3. A pharmaceutical composition comprising the polynucleotide of claim 2 and a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient.

4. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 3 which is formulated and wherein the formulation is a lipid formulation.

5. A method of producing a polypeptide of interest in a cell, tissue or bodily fluid of a mammalian subject comprising administering to said subject a pharmaceutical composition comprising the isolated polynucleotide of claim 1 , wherein upon administration to said subject, the polypeptide of interest is produced in said cell, tissue or bodily fluid.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the polynucleotide further comprises a 5′Cap1 structure and a polyA tail of approximately 160 nucleotides in length.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the pharmaceutical composition is formulated and wherein the formulation is a lipid formulation.

8. The method of claim 5 , where the pharmaceutical composition is administered at a total dose of about 0.1 mg/kg to about 40 mg/kg.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein administration occurs on a schedule selected from the group consisting of three time a day, twice a day, once a day, every other day, every third day, weekly, biweekly, every three weeks, every four weekly, and monthly.

10. The method of claim 8 , wherein the total dose is administered by multiple administrations.

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the multiple administrations occur on a schedule selected from the group consisting of three times a day, twice a day, once a day, every other day, every third day, weekly, biweekly, every three weeks, every four weekly, and monthly.

12. The method of claim 5 , wherein an increase in the level of the polypeptide of interest is observed in tissue or bodily fluid within 8 hours.

13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the increased level of the polypeptide of interest is observed in a tissue selected from the group consisting of liver, spleen, kidney, lung, heart, peri-renal adipose tissue, thymus and muscle.

14. The method of claim 5 , wherein an increase in the level of the polypeptide of interest is observed in tissue or bodily fluid within 2 hours.
