Overall, more and more law firms, pharmaceutical firms, biotech companies, and academia are using GenomeQuest as an integrated solution for all their IP sequence searching needs: including IP validity, freedom-to-operate, patent infringement, and business opportunity.
Major benefits include:
"We selected GenomeQuest™ for its ability to instantly locate sequence data and display it in an intuitive and easily manipulated format."
- Director of Research (Anti-Infectives) and Manager, Intellectual Property

"ARYx has adopted GenomeQuest™... as we ramp up our molecular biology laboratory, to provide first-class sequence data and analysis for our researchers, as well as assisting us in maintaining and growing our significant IP in retrometabolic drug design."
- Senior Manager of Intellectual Property

The amount of data recorded in global sequence databases is growing exponentially. And information about patented sequences is growing even faster. Legal professionals and scientists doing the critical work of IP research are seeking the best and fastest way to discover IP sequence information across these databases.
Previously, their options included outsourcing the work or serially combing through multiple, global databases -- options which too often leave researchers with major challenges:
To overcome these challenges, IP specialists are increasingly turning to GQ-PAT -- an online IP research solution with easy-to-use, comprehensive content, search, and analysis tools.
GQ-PAT aggregates, normalizes, curates, and updates IP information across global databases, including USPTO, EPO, WIPO & PCT, INPADOC, GenBank, EMBL, DDBJ, and paper filings from WIPO. Over 265,000 patents -- including their sequences and all annotations -- are now stored and updated bi-weekly in the GQPAT database. Users can also add in-house sequence data to GQ-PAT.
GQ-PAT offers multiple search algorithms, including BLAST, GenePast, and more that work across their selected set of global databases.

The GQ-PAT result browser allows users to interactively query/filter/group on any field and quickly pinpoint matches of most interest. Multiple users can even collaborate on shared datasets. GQ-PAT also offers a set of comprehensive IP search reports.
