1. A method of increasing nuclease activity in a cell, the method comprising:
- introducing an mRNA comprising a 3′
untranslated region (3′
UTR) and encoding at least one component of one or more nucleases into the cell, wherein the mRNA comprises a woodchuck hepatitis virus posttranslational regulatory element (WPRE) as shown in any of SEQ ID NOs;
1-3 in the 3′
UTR.
