Heung-Bok Park 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: 7771970
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process of separation a protein of interest comprising expressing the protein of interest fused with a fusion partner, selectively adsorbing on matrix, and performing efficient cleavage reaction on the fusion protein adsorbed on matrix or separated from the matrix, and recovering the protein of interest. Also, the present invention provides a fusion protein comprising a protein of interest and a fusion partner, wherein the fusion partner comprises an amino acid sequence which can be cleaved by ubiquitin cleavage enzyme at its C-terminus, and which has a difference in isoelectric point of 1 or more from the protein of interest. According to the present invention, the proteins of interest can be purified in high yield and purity. In addition, complicated separating processes required in the production of recombinant proteins can be eliminated so as to cut down the production cost.

  • Patent number: 6713611
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of removing an endotoxin from solution containing basic proteins. More specifically, the method of the present invention comprises the steps of adding the surfactant to solution containing the basic protein obtained from the recombinant microorganism and mixing the resultant, of loading the resultant solution on the cation exchange column, washing the cation exchange column with solution which does not contain surfactant, and eluting the basic protein of interest from the cation exchange column.
