Patents by Inventor Gilbert Thill

Gilbert Thill 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: 20080201789
    Abstract: The present invention provides polypeptide and polynucleotide sequences for novel splice variants of the sodium and chloride-dependent glycine transporter type 1 (GlyT1). These polypeptides and polynucleotides are useful in the treatment and diagnosis of disorders such as neurological and psychiatric disorders including schizophrenia. The invention also provides antibodies directed specifically against these novel polypeptides, and kits comprising the herein-described polynucleotides, polypeptides, and/or antibodies.
    Type: Application

  • Publication number: 20040106140
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to methods of isolation of related polynucleotides harboring nucleic acid difference within a polynucleotide sample. The method will be useful in detecting and identifying alternative splicing events and corresponding splicing isoforms and to detect genomic DNA differences between genomes. The method according to the present invention is based on the use of a single-stranded trap. The single-stranded trap preferably involves the use of single-strand binding protein.
