我国人类基因专利保护的意义——基于分子水平和遗传资源保护策略的分析

人类基因是一种重要的战略性资源，是指人体的一段特定的核苷酸排列顺序。人类基因专利是指依照专利法的规定，发明人、特殊基因携带人对具有明确功能的DNA片段在专利法规定的期限内享有的独占实施权。人类基因专利保护赋予了这种基因资源开发者以垄断法权，这种保护也是人类自身资源的保护，具有重要的战略意义、现实意义。

On the Significance of Protecting Human Gene Patent

The human gene, an important strategic resource, is an array of specific sequence of nucleotide acid in the human body. Human gene patent is the monopolization right granted the originators and the carriers of specific genes on the DNA segments which have a definite function. They can have the right in the time term prescribed by patent law. The protection of the human gene patent has endowed the developers of those gene resources with monopolization right. This protection can also be significant in protecting humans own resources. It has strategic and realistic meanings.
