Steve Jenison 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).

  • Molecular clones producing recombinant DNA antigens of the hantavirus-associated respiratory distress (HARDS)
    Patent number: 6316250
    Abstract: The invention provides HARDS virus rDNA for expression in molecular clones. The expressed products are useful in immunodiagnostics, prophylactics, and therapeutics for the HARDS virus and related hantaviruses. Of particular interest are a type-specific epitope of the HARDS virus G1 protein, and dominant epitopes of the HARDS virus N protein cross-reactive with antibodies to the HARDS virus and the related hantavirus PHV, both expressed by cDNA clones according to the invention.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 29, 1998
    Date of Patent: November 13, 2001
    Assignee: The University of New Mexico
    Inventors: Brian Hjelle, Steve Jenison
