  • 在萤火虫荧光蛋白上实现预测半衰期与翻译效率的双重提升
  • 适合新药研发中的mRNA序列设计,尤其针对未见靶点

治疗性信使RNA(mRNA)设计需兼顾稳定性、翻译效率和免疫安全性。为此,我们提出ProMORNA框架,可直接从靶蛋白序列生成完整的全新mRNA。该方法首先在超过600万对天然蛋白-mRNA数据上训练一个类BART的编码器-解码器模型,随后引入多目标组相对策略优化(MO-GRPO),统一优化多个生物目标。以广泛使用的萤火虫荧光蛋白为目标进行案例研究,该目标未参与训练数据或提示池。结果表明,ProMORNA在模拟计算中优于标准监督基线,实现了预测半衰期与翻译效率的帕累托前沿提升;同时在相同评估流程下,功能得分高于现有先进基线。这些计算结果证明了多目标强化学习在未见靶点上设计全长mRNA的可行性。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Designing therapeutic messenger RNA (mRNA) requires creating full-length transcripts that carefully balance stability, translation efficiency, and immune safety. To address this challenge, we propose ProMORNA, a multi-objective generation framework that produces complete mRNA transcripts \textit{de novo} directly from a target protein sequence. Our approach begins by training a BART-style encoder-decoder model on over 6 million natural protein-mRNA pairs. We then introduce Multi-Objective Group Relative Policy Optimization (MO-GRPO) to simultaneously optimize for various biological objectives in a unified way. As a case study, we evaluated ProMORNA on the widely used firefly luciferase target, excluding it from both our supervised training data and the prompt pool. The results indicate that ProMORNA improves the \textit{in silico} Pareto frontier for predicted half-life and translation efficiency relative to standard supervised baselines. Additionally, it achieves higher predicted functional scores than a state-of-the-art baseline under the same evaluation pipeline. These computational findings demonstrate the feasibility of using multi-objective reinforcement learning for full-length mRNA design on unseen targets.
