Johannes Zuber 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: 20250051759
    Abstract: The invention provides a method of suppressing gene expression, comprising providing a mammalian cell with a suppression target RNA molecule comprising a heterologous RNAi target site operatively linked to a RNA sequence from a gene of interest, or with a DNA encoding said suppression target RNA molecule; providing to the cell an inhibitory RNA that has a complementary nucleotide sequence to the heterologous RNAi target site; wherein binding of the inhibitory RNA to the heterologous RNAi target site suppresses gene expression of the operatively linked RNA sequence from the gene of interest; and wherein said heterologous RNAi target site has a size of at least 18 nucleotides in length. The invention further provides nucleic acids and cells suitable for such a method.

  • Patent number: 11859248
    Abstract: A method of identifying a polynucleic acid (PNA) is presented, including the steps of providing a PNA; modifying one or more nucleobases of the PNA by addition or removal of a hydrogen bonding partner, thereby altering the base pairing capacity of the one or more nucleobases; base pairing a complementary nucleic acid to the PNA, including base pairing to at least one modified nucleobase; identifying the sequence of the complementary nucleic acid at least at the position that is complementary to at least one modified nucleobase.
