RESUMO
RNA vaccines have made evident to society what was already known by the scientific community: nucleic acids will be the "drugs of the future." By modifying the genome, interfering in transcription or translation, and by introducing new catalysts into the cell or by mimicking antibody effects, nucleic acids can generate therapeutic activities that are not accessible by any other therapeutic agents. There are, however, challenges that need to be solved in the next few years to make nucleic acids usable in a wide range of therapeutic scenarios. This review illustrates how simulation methods can help achieve this goal.
