Marco Mena 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).

  • Immune Repertoire Sequence Amplification Methods and Applications
    Publication number: 20210079380
    Abstract: The present invention relates generally to the field of immune binding proteins and method for obtaining immune binding proteins from genomic or other sources. The present invention also relates to nucleic acids encoding the immune binding proteins in which the natural multimeric association of chains is maintained in the nucleic acids and the immune binding proteins made therefrom. For example nucleic acids encoding antibodies that are amplified from a B-cell using the methods of the invention maintain the natural pairing of heavy and light chains from the B-cell. This maintenance of pairing (or multimerization) produces libraries and/or repertoires of immune binding proteins that are enriched for useful binding molecules.
    Type: Application
