Successful outcome in US CRISPR patent interference against SNIPR Biome

“In November 2021, US “Interference” proceedings resulted in cancellation of five US patents owned by SNIPR TECHNOLOGIES.

The interactions between the gene repertoire of the microbiome and the immune system of the host play a pivotal role in health and disease.

The presence or absence of a single bacterial gene can trigger or aggravate a variety of diseasesI

This genetic causality is being demonstrated in a growing number of therapeutic areas
