Question about mRNA vaccines (T6 attendees only)
Poast new message in this thread
Date: March 18th, 2021 7:38 PM Author: Dun Parlour NOTE: If you did not, and currently do not attend a Tier 6 (T6) law school, you may read this thread but please do not add to the comment section. If you feel compelled to respond to something you see in this thread, you are invited to start another thread, or to add your comment[s] to a thread initiated by someone else.
I will update this thread shortly with a "comment" where I ask the question about mRNA vaccines that prompted me to start this thread. In the meantime, please do not respond to this comment or otherwise content in this thread unless you attend or have attended a T6 law school.
Note that you only need to have attended (or attend) a T6 law school. Graduation is not necessary. However, merely having been accepted does not count, even if you visited and even if you paid a deposit or incurred some other nonreimbursable expense. You also do not have to have been accepted at a T6. If you were somehow able to attend a T6 (or you currently attend one) without having been accepted to a T6 you may comment in this thread.
For the purposes of this thread, T6 has its customary definition and includes only those schools included in that echelon as of the date of the earliest comment in this thread. T6 does not include Michigan.

Date: March 18th, 2021 9:18 PM Author: Dun Parlour QUESTION ABOUT mRNA VACCINES: What kind of skill set is needed to develop these vaccines? From what I understand, you would need the same level of training in cell and molecular biology etc. as someone who develops normal vaccines, but it seems like you'd also need a pretty advanced understanding of engineering physics in order to design a protein that has all the characteristics you'd need to trigger an immune response that's effective against every mutation to the corona structure you can imagine. If I'm right about that, I wonder whether there are individual scientists working on these projects who are experts in both fields, or whether people with expertise in one but not both fields are contributing to a project managed by people who are also not themselves experts in both fields (as opposed to answering to an Elon Musk type who understands every minute detail of every key piece of technolgy).

Date: March 18th, 2021 10:56 PM Author: arousing school Figuring out what RNA sequence you want in there is the easy part. Any postdoc can do a quick high-throughput sequence to assemble a viral genome and figure out what the likely surface proteins are from a bioinformatic workup. And this is easy to change in the case of a strain with a mutant version--just change your sequence to match it.
The hard part is actually getting the mRNA into a cell so it can translate it and display it on its MHCs to T cells. Exogenous mRNA getting into your cells is a bad thing, and your body has a lot of tricks to prevent that, not the least of which is non-specific ribonucleases every. So the tech is really the chemistry of the delivery system you put the RNA in. |
