Modified consensus mesothelin antigen for cancer treatment
The granted patent US11986517B2 outlines specific claims related to a protein characterized by its amino acid sequence. Claim 1 describes a protein that includes amino acids 19-607 from SEQ ID NO: 2 or an amino acid sequence that is at least 96% identical to this segment. Notably, this protein must contain specific amino acids at designated positions: alanine at position 303, threonine at position 583, and valine at position 585. Claim 2 expands on this by including the full sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2 and also allows for sequences that maintain at least 96% identity to SEQ ID NO: 2, with the same specified amino acids at the aforementioned positions.
Claim 3 further simplifies the description by asserting the protein comprises the complete amino acid sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 2. Collectively, these claims emphasize the importance of specific amino acid positions and sequence identity in defining the protein's structure and potential functionality, which may have implications for various applications in biotechnology and medicine.
