Application of Artificial Intelligence to Predict the Degradation of Potential mRNA Vaccines Developed to Treat SARS-CoV-2

    Abstract

    The Covid19 pandemic has impacted the entire world negatively, and scientists, healthcare professionals and engineers are all on the search for viable solutions. During the search for a vaccine for the virus, scientifically known as SARS-CoV-2, it was identified as an mRNA virus, which is why mRNA vaccines could be potential solutions. However, mRNA vaccines easily degrade, and the objective of this study was to predict the degradation rates of various potential mRNA strands to potentially select an ideal sequence for a vaccine. This paper details an approach that uses a Neural Network model with the LSTM (Long Short Term Memory) and GRU (Gated Recurrent Unit) architectures to predict the degradation of each sequence in the given data, which comprised of sequences of mRNA. The performance of the model was evaluated using the MCRMSE (Mean Columnwise Root Mean Squared Error) as the scoring metric.
