Kerwyn Casey Huang 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).

  • Methods and systems for identification of biomolecule sequence coevolution and applications thereof
    Patent number: 10886007
    Abstract: Generation of biomolecule sequence coevolution data structures, matrices, scores, and sectors are described. Generally, the generated coevolution data removes covariant noise due to phylogenetic drift and can reveal coevolution of residue positions in multiple phylogenetic distances. Scores can be built upon the data structures and matrices to reveal sectors of residue positions that function and evolve together. Furthermore, the coevolution data structures, matrices, scores, and sectors can be used to predict structure or function of residue variants.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 23, 2016
    Date of Patent: January 5, 2021
    Assignee: The Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University
    Inventors: Alexandre Colavin, Kerwyn Casey Huang, Carlos L. Araya
