Peter,
I posted this to the Maxygen thread during the middle of last year on Festo. Do you think the interpretation is correct and if so, who will win and lose?

In my previous post, I said "who will win and lose?" I didn't mean the case. I meant, if the decision is upheld, which biotech companies (if any) will win and which will lose.

It would seem the protein based drug companies would be at risk such as Amgen and HGSI. Maxygen and Diversa might be winners because their gene shuffling technology could slightly alter proteins of existing drugs into new patentable drugs.
Regards,
David
