Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
The present invention relates to a method for screening and identifying test compounds that bind to a preselected target ribonucleic acid ("RNA"). Direct non-competitive binding assays are advantageously used to screen libraries of compounds for those that selectively bind to a preselected target RNA. Binding of target RNA molecules to a particular test compound is detected using any physical method that measures the altered physical property of the target RNA bound to a test compound. The structure of the test compound attached to the labeled RNA is also determined. The methods used will depend in part, on the , nature of the library screened. The methods of the present invention …

Why it's free to use
- Filed April 11, 2002. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended April 11, 2022.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by April 11, 2024.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
