Appeal No. 2003-0338 Page 6 Application No. 08/486,451 This rejection suffers from the same deficiencies as the rejection over the combination of Prestrelski and Manning. With respect to claim 21, Igari I and Igari II also teach a broad genus of protein compositions, with nothing directing the ordinary artisan to the combination of thrombopoeitin with histidine. With respect to claim 24, again, the rejection does not even discuss the limitations of that claim. Thus, this rejection is reversed for the same reasons set forth above with respect to the combination of Prestrelski and Manning.Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 NextLast modified: November 3, 2007
