Patents by Inventor Suzanne B. Sandmeyer

Suzanne B. Sandmeyer 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).

  • Position-specific insertion vectors and method of using same
    Patent number: 5482853
    Abstract: The present invention provides vectors for the efficient and position-specific integration of expressible, exogenous nucleotide sequences into cellular genomes. This invention takes advantage of the discovery of a position-specific endonuclease and position-specific insertion markers for the design of said vectors. In addition, a gene comprising a recombinant nucleic acid molecule encoding a polypeptide possessing the biological activity of a position-specific endonuclease, wherein the biological activity of said endonuclease is the catalysis of position-specific insertion of genetic material carried between the position-specific integration markers, is disclosed.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 28, 1993
    Date of Patent: January 9, 1996
    Assignee: The Regents of the University of California
