SequenceBase Corporation and FIZ Karlsruhe announce the launch of the USGENE database / All peptide and nucleic acid sequences from the published applications and issued patents of the United States Patent & Trademark Office (USPTO), from 1982 to date, are now available via the leading online service STN International / Special introductory offer Edison, NJ, USA / Karlsruhe, Germany, 29 July 2007 - SequenceBase Corporation and FIZ Karlsruhe are pleased to announce the launch of The USPTO Genetic Sequence Database, USGENE on STN . USGENE is an invaluable new resource for freedom-to-operate, prior-art, validity and patent infringement searches and thus perfectly complements STN's wide range of prestigious biosequence databases. Its unique collection of about 200 scientific and patent databases makes the online Service STN a leading provider of sci-tech information.
USGENE covers all available peptide and nucleic acid sequences from the published applications and issued patents of the United States Patent & Trademark Office (USPTO), from 1982 to date.
USGENE is the new unparalleled resource for freedom-to-operate, prior-art, validity and infringement patent sequence searches. The database is ideal for competitive analysis of organizations with biosequence patents and current awareness alerts (SDIs) from the very latest USPTO sequence data.
USGENE offers three advanced sequence searching methods; NCBI BLAST , the FastA-based GETSIM, and GETSEQ for fragment or motif sequence queries. The database also provides fully searchable organism name, sequence length, publication sequence identity number (SEQ ID NO) and feature tables for modifications and other features.
USGENE database includes extensive bibliographic and text search options, including publication title, abstract, patent claims, patent assignees at issue, full inventor names, plus the complete set of publication, application and parent case WIPO/PCT numbers and dates.
Single-click full-text links from USGENE sequence records to USPTO original documents on the web are available to all searchers using STN Express and STN on the Web.
USGENE provides a unique searchable combination of biological data - sequences, organism names, molecule types, sequence ID numbers and feature tables - with the original USPTO publication text, especially patent claims." commented Martin Goffman, President and CEO, SequenceBase Corporation. "We are delighted to partner with FIZ Karlsruhe to offer STN patent sequence searchers first access to this new database - an entirely new resource for U.S. freedom-to-operate, prior-art, validity and patent infringement searches.
"The unique combination of USGENE with prestigious STN patent sequence databases DGENE (GENESEQTM), PCTGEN and REGISTRY, gives life-science intellectual property professionals the ability to make business critical decisions with greater certainty than was possible before," said Sabine Br nger-Weilandt, President and CEO of FIZ Karlsruhe. "FIZ Karlsruhe recognizes that SequenceBase Corporation's USGENE database is a truly innovative concept, and we join with our customers to welcome its arrival on STN with great enthusiasm.
From August to September 2007 each STN loginID holder will benefit from a special introductory offer for USGENE usage. For more information please visit www.stn-international.de .
