Patents by Inventor Peter Anthony Koopman

Peter Anthony Koopman 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).

  • SOX-9 gene and protein and use in the regeneration of bone or cartilage
    Patent number: 6737413
    Abstract: This invention relates to an isolated DNA molecule encoding a Sox-9 gene which codes for the Sox-9 polypeptide. The human SOX-9 gene has been mapped to chromosome 17 in the same region as CMPD-1, the locus for Campomelic Dysplasia (CD). Sox-9 appears to have a role in mammalian skeletal development, and is used in the treatment of diseases involving bone or cartilage deficiency.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 20, 2001
    Date of Patent: May 18, 2004
    Assignee: The University of Queensland
    Inventors: Peter Anthony Koopman, Peter Neville Goodfellow
  • Novel polypeptides and polynucleotides and methods of using them
    Publication number: 20020142415
    Abstract: Novel isolated Sox18 molecules are described for use in modulating cell differentiation, vasculogenesis, angiogenesis and/or hair follicle development, and in compositions for treating and/or preventing conditions that are associated, at least in part, with aberrant Sox18 expression or that are ameliorable, at least in part, by modulation of Sox18 expression as described hereinafter. The present invention also describes modulatory agents that modulate the expression of subgroup F Sox genes and to the use of these agents for prophylactic and/or therapeutic purposes. Further, the invention describes antigen-binding molecules that are immuno-interactive with the polypeptides of the invention.
