Jörg Hacker 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).

  • IMMUNOGENS FROM UROPATHOGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI
    Publication number: 20130004531
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are various polypeptides that can be included in immunogenic compositions specific for pathogenic E. coli strains. The polypeptides have cellular locations which render them accessible to the immune system. The genes encoding the polypeptides were initially identified as being present in uropathogenic strain 536 but absent from non-pathogenic strains.
    Type: Application
    Filed: September 4, 2012
    Publication date: January 3, 2013
    Applicants: Robert Koch Institute, Novartis Vaccines and Diagnostics SRL
    Inventors: Francesco BERLANDA SCORZA, Maria Rita Fontana, Danilo Gomes Moriel, Mariagrazia Pizza, Laura Serino, Jörg Hacker
  • Use of cells containing a specific DNA molecule as cytopathic agents to inhibit the proliferation of cells
    Patent number: 8277798
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of cells containing in their genome a specific DNA molecule, as cytopathic agents able to inhibit the proliferation of cells, when these proliferative cells are contacted with the cells containing the above-mentioned DNA molecule.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 10, 2007
    Date of Patent: October 2, 2012
    Assignees: Institut National de la Recherche Agronomique, Bayerische Julius-Maximilians-Universitat Wurzburg

  • DNA sequences of genes from fimbriae d'escherichia coli strain DSM 6601
    Patent number: 6376185
    Abstract: The invention relates to DNA sequences from fimbrial gene clusters of Escherichia coli strain DSM 6601. This strain has two chromosomal fimbrial gene clusters, namely type I (fim) and FIC (foc) gene clusters. DNA sequences of the main subunits fimA and focA are represented by SEQ ID NOS: 1 and 2.
