Latest Patents
Shigeru Shimamura holds a patent for a method and computer program product designed to determine whether a test protein has thermostability. The invention involves calculating an analytical value specific to a test protein through principal component analysis based on the amino acid composition derived from the protein's amino acid sequence or the nucleotide sequence of its gene. This analytical value is then compared to that of a protein retained by a thermostable organism that corresponds to the test protein. The invention also includes a program that enables a computer to execute the processing required to judge the thermostability of a protein, along with a computer-readable recording medium containing the program. He has 1 patent to his name.
