Abstract From the Canadian patent

The present invention is directed to a cytochrome P-450 gene cluster involved in the cleavage of ether fuel additives. More especially the present , invention pertains to the nucleic acid sequence of genes responsible for the biodegradation of ethyl tert-butyl ether (ETBE) in Rhodococcus ruber and to , several applications ensuing from the knowledge of this sequence such as , probes and biosensors for detecting a pollution by an ether fuel and for , assessing the potential of a contaminated soil to cleave said ether fuel. The invention also pertains to methods for rendering a cell able to cleave ether fuel additives, and to recombinant bacteria useful for ether fuel depollution of a …

Why it's free to use

  • Filed June 20, 2002 and granted June 11, 2013. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended June 20, 2022.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by June 20, 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.
