Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
By this invention, novel nucleic acid sequences encoding for acyl- CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT) related proteins are provided wherein , said ACAT-like protein is active in the formation of a sterol ester and/or triacylglycerol from a fatty acyl-CoA and sterol and/or diacylglycerol substrates. Also considered are amino acid and nucleic acid sequences obtainable from ACAT-like nucleic acid sequences and the use of such sequences to provide transgenic host cells capable of producing sterol esters and/or triacylglycerols.

Why it's free to use
- Filed June 4, 1999. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended June 4, 2019.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by June 4, 2021.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
