Detailed Analysis of United States Patent 8318714: Methods for the Production of Recombinant Proteins

United States Patent 8318714, titled "Methods for the production of recombinant proteins," was issued to Biogen International GmbH on November 28, 2012. The patent encompasses a range of innovations related to the production of recombinant proteins, which are proteins produced through genetic engineering techniques.

Background and Scope

Recombinant proteins have numerous applications in the pharmaceutical industry, including the treatment of various diseases and disorders. The production of recombinant proteins often involves the use of cell lines that express these proteins in a controlled manner. Patent 8318714 addresses the challenges associated with achieving high yields of recombinant proteins while maintaining their functional integrity.

Key Claims and Innovations

The patent claims focus on methods for the production of recombinant proteins in mammalian cells, such as CHO (Chinese hamster ovary) cells. The claimed methods relate to improving the expression and secretion efficiency of recombinant proteins, as well as enhancing the overall product yield.

  • Vector Designs: The patent describes novel vector designs for the expression of recombinant proteins in mammalian cells. These vectors are engineered to optimize protein expression and secretion, resulting in increased yields and improved product quality.
  • Transfection Parameters: The patent also claims optimized transfection parameters for enhancing the uptake of DNA into mammalian cells. This allows for more efficient introduction of recombinant DNA into cells, resulting in improved protein expression.
  • Cultivation Conditions: The patent further describes optimized cultivation conditions for mammalian cells, including the use of alternative feedstocks and modified growth media. These conditions are designed to promote cell growth, protein production, and product quality.
  • Monitoring and Feedback Control: The patent claims a method for monitoring and feedback control of mammalian cell cultures to optimize protein production. This approach enables real-time analysis of cell culture conditions, allowing for adjustments to be made to optimize protein yields and product quality.

Patent Validity and Implications

Patent 8318714 has a granted expiration date of March 23, 2029, providing a significant window for companies involved in recombinant protein production to exploit the claimed innovations. The patent's broad scope and claimed inventions have far-reaching implications for the development of new biopharmaceuticals and cell therapies.

Potential Applications and Impact

The innovations claimed in Patent 8318714 have the potential to significantly impact the biopharmaceutical industry, enabling the development of more efficient and cost-effective processes for the production of recombinant proteins. This, in turn, may facilitate the creation of new and innovative therapies for various diseases and disorders.
