Makiko Suwa 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).

  • Guanosine triphosphate-binding protein coupled receptors
    Publication number: 20070009916
    Abstract: The object of the present invention is to provide a technique for efficiently extracting GPCR sequences from human genome sequences, thereby comprehensively identifying novel GPCRs. An original automatic system for identifying GPCR sequences is disclosed, and 1035 novel GPCRs are successfully identified from the entire human genome by utilizing the system.
    Type: Application

  • Novel guanosine triphosphate-binding protein-coupled receptors, genes thereof and production and use of the same
    Publication number: 20030157558
    Abstract: Nine novel genes sustaining hydrophobic domains, which are estimated to be seven transmembrane domains characteristic to G protein-coupled receptors, are successfully isolated by human tissue cDNA screening. These genes and proteins which are the expression products thereof are usable in screening ligands, screening agonists or antagonists which are useful as drugs, diagnosing diseases in which these gene participate, etc.
