The granted patent US12006361B2 outlines a novel IL-12 albumin binding domain fusion protein characterized by a specific amino acid sequence identified as SEQ ID NO: 280. The patent claims the fusion protein itself, as well as the nucleic acid that encodes this protein, providing a foundational basis for further applications in biotechnology and therapeutic development. Additionally, the patent includes claims for an expression vector that contains the nucleic acid, which is essential for the production of the fusion protein in various host cells.

Furthermore, the patent details a method for producing the IL-12 albumin binding domain fusion protein. This method involves culturing a host cell that contains either the nucleic acid or the expression vector, under conditions conducive to the expression of the fusion protein. The process culminates in the recovery of the IL-12 albumin binding domain fusion protein, which may have significant implications for enhancing the efficacy of IL-12 in therapeutic contexts. Overall, the claims provide a comprehensive framework for the development and production of this fusion protein, potentially advancing research and treatment strategies in immunology and related fields.
