Fig. 1. Design and characterization of SARS-CoV-2 D614G saRNA/NLC vaccine.

a SARS-CoV-2 saRNA vaccine schematic. b RNA/nanostructured lipid carrier (NLC) vaccine formulation. Design by Cassandra Baden. c Size distribution of NLC formulation particles alone (black) and saRNA/NLC complex (pink) showing mean and standard deviation of n = 3 replicate measurements for each sample. d SARS-CoV-2 saRNA complexed to the outside of the NLC particles is full-length intact saRNA that is protected by the NLC complexation from RNase degradation. Lanes were derived from the same gel and re-arranged (see Supplementary Fig. 7). e Western blot showing SARS-CoV-2 spike (S) protein expression in saRNA/NLC vaccine-transfected HEK-293 cells. Blot was derived from the same experiment and processed in parallel. See Supplementary Fig. 7 for the original unprocessed blot image.
