Bo-sup Chung 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).

  • Patent number: 8008454
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a fusion protein in which a carboxy terminal of human erythropoietin (EPO) is fused with a carboxy terminal peptide fragment of ? subunit of human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG), to DNA encoding the fusion protein, and to a method for preparation of the fusion protein. The fusion protein has the enhanced in vivo activity of erythropoietin.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 10, 2001
    Date of Patent: August 30, 2011
    Assignee: CJ CheilJedang Corporation
    Inventors: Dong-Eok Lee, Myung-Suk Oh, Ki-Wan Kim, Bo-Sup Chung, Byung-Jhip Ha, Ji-Sook Park

  • Patent number: 7098318
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a fusion protein having enhanced in vivo activity of erythropoietin wherein a carboxy terminal peptide fragment of thrombopoietin is fused with the carboxy terminal of human erythropoietin. This fusion protein has highly enhanced in vivo half-life due to increased carbohydrate content without loss of the inherent activity of erythropoietin, and does not cause any antigenicity when applied to the human body.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: August 29, 2006
    Assignee: Cheil Jedang Corporation

  • Patent number: 7091326
    Abstract: Provided is a fusion protein comprising, at its carboxy terminal of human erythropoietin (EPO), a mutant having one to four amino acid substitutions in the carboxy terminal peptide (CTP) fragment of a human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) ? subunit, for increasing an in vivo half-life activity of EPO. The in vivo half-life can be greatly elongated while retaining the intrinsic activity of the EPO, without increasing the sugar chain content.
