It is important in the process of protein synthesis because mRNA is responsible for transferring genetic information from DNA to ribosomes, which then decodes the genetic information into a protein. In the last few years, researchers have become interested in using in vitro transcribed (IVT) mRNA as a drug delivery agent.

Some have argued bacteria are developing antibiotic resistance faster than we can research, develop, test and approve new antibiotics. While developing an entirely new class of antibiotic is challenging, making minor genetic modifications to a virus or phage is something fairly easily accomplished with modern technologies.
