Polynucleotides for disrupting immune cell activity and methods of use thereof

Abstract

The disclosure features isolated polynucleotides, such as mRNAs, encoding a polypeptide that disrupts immune cell activity, such as T cell or B cell activity, including mRNAs comprising one or more modified nucleobase. The immune cell disruptor polynucleotides encode a polypeptide that comprises a first domain that mediates association of the polypeptide with an immune cell component and a second domain that mediates inhibition of immune cell activity when the polypeptide is expressed in the immune cell. The disclosure also features methods of using the same, for example, for inhibiting immune responses when administered to a subject, such as to inhibit autoimmune reactions.
