Abstract From the Canadian patent

The present invention relates to a yeast cell of the genus Schwanniomyces wherein said yeast cell contains at least one expression cassette comprising: a) a first DNA sequence serving as a regulon b) optionally a second DNA sequence coding for a signal peptide, c) a third DNA sequence coding for a foreign protein, and, d) optionally a fourth DNA sequence serving as a terminator. In a preferred embodiment of the invention the first, second and/or fourth DNA sequences are derived from genes coding for amylolytic enzymes of yeast cells at the genus Schwanniomyces. The use of these functional sequences in an expression cassette provides efficient expression of foreign genes in yeast cells …

Why it's free to use

  • Filed April 20, 1990 and granted July 25, 2000. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended April 20, 2010.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by April 20, 2012.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
