Presumably a patent for a specific cDNA strand (gene or whatever) would have a
unique comprehensive specification for that strand, not just a large set of
short sequences to be found in close proximity within the strand. Presumably a
patent for extracting a specific cDNA strand would specify both a unique
comprehensive specification for the strand as well as the set of sequences used
for extraction. If those that set of sequences is over-broad, the process would
be flawed in that it could extract other cDNA in addition to the desired cDNA.
However, as long as the target cDNA strand was comprehensively identified in the
patent, I don't see that patent preempting a process for extracting a different
cDNA strand.
I don't see a big difference between a patent on a flawed process for producing
ink if a certain color (that sometimes gets the tint wrong) and a patent for
extracting a specific cDNA that sometimes includes other cDNA because it used an
overbroad set of sequences.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
