Thomas Stibora 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).

  • ANTICALINS
    Publication number: 20160280747
    Abstract: The invention relates to the production of novel proteins exhibiting bonding activity for certain ligands, the so-called anticalins. To this end, the structure of peptides of the lipocalin family is modified by amino acid replacement in their natural ligand binding pocket using generic engineering methods. A like immunoglobulin, the anticalin thus obtained can be used to identify or bond molecular structures.
    Type: Application
