Jung Ae Im has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Publication number: 20160311862
    Abstract: Disclosed are an epitope specific to hepatitis B virus (HBV) and use thereof. The disclosed epitope is a conservative position on which mutagenesis does not occur and, therefore, a composition including an antibody to the foregoing epitope or a vaccine composition including the epitope has very low possibility of causing degradation of curing efficacy due to HBV mutation, thus being very useful for HBV treatment.
    Type: Application
    Filed: July 11, 2016
    Publication date: October 27, 2016
    Applicant: GREEN CROSS CORPORATION
    Inventors: Se-Ho KIM, Kwang-Won HONG, Yong-Won SHIN, Ki Hwan CHANG, Min-soo KIM, Jung-Ae IM

  • Patent number: 8765446
    Abstract: The present invention relates to recombinant mutant microorganisms having an increased ability to produce alcohol and a method of producing alcohol using the same, and more particularly to recombinant mutant microorganisms which have an increased ability to produce butanol, ethanol, isopropanol or mixed alcohols, which can be used as fuel, while producing little or no producing acetone as a byproduct, and to a method of producing butanol, ethanol, isopropanol or mixed alcohols using the same. The inventive recombinant mutant microorganisms having an increased ability to produce butanol or mixed alcohols and to remove acetone are those in which genes that encode enzymes involved in producing butanol from butyryl-CoA or butylaldehyde and in producing isopropanol from acetone were amplified or introduced in host microorganisms.
