Abstract | The development of safe and effective medications requires a profound understanding of their pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic properties. PK studies have been built through investigation of enzymes and transporters that drive drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME). Like many other disciplines, the study of ADME gene products and their functions has been revolutionized through the invention and widespread adoption of recombinant DNA technologies. Recombinant DNA technologies use expression vectors such as plasmids to achieve heterologous expression of a desired transgene in a specified host organism. This has enabled the purification of recombinant ADME gene products for functional and structural characterization, allowing investigators to elucidate their roles in drug metabolism and disposition. This strategy has also been used to offer recombinant or bioengineered RNA (BioRNA) agents to investigate the posttranscriptional regulation of ADME genes. Conventional research with small noncoding RNAs such as microRNAs (miRNAs) and small interfering RNAs has been dependent on synthetic RNA analogs that are known to carry a range of chemical modifications expected to improve stability and PK properties. Indeed, a novel transfer RNA fused pre-miRNA carrier-based bioengineering platform technology has been established to offer consistent and high-yield production of unparalleled BioRNA molecules from |
