How can I access a Sequence Listing for a patent or patent application?
According to MPEP 2419.02, there are two main ways to access a Sequence Listing for a patent or patent application:
- Online Access: The Sequence Listing is available electronically from the USPTO website at https://seqdata.uspto.gov.
- Request from USPTO: You can request an electronic copy of the Sequence Listing from the USPTO. However, this option requires payment of a fee as set forth in 37 CFR 1.19(b)(3).
The patent or patent application publication will include a SEQUENCE LISTING statement providing this information for easy reference.
