Abstract From the Canadian patent

Modified HV1 -type hirudin in which valine at the N-terminal end of the HV1-type hirudin and aspartic acid at the 5th residue of the N-terminal end were replaced with alanine and glutamic acid, respectively. A secretion plasmid into which a DNA sequence coding for a precursor with an addition of a secretion signal of neutral protease of Bacillus amyloliquifacience at the N-terminal end of this modified HV1-type hirudin is integrated is introduced into bacteria of the genus Bacillus and the precursor is expressed intracellularly. The modified HV1-type hirudin can be efficiently secreted extracellularly while maintaining its high thrombin inhibiting activity.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed June 4, 1990 and granted February 20, 1996. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended June 4, 2010.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by June 4, 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.
