              Overview

              What is Orbit BioSequence?

              Orbit BioSequence is specially architected for IP professionals. OBS allows you to compare DNA sequences or peptides with our databases of sequences from patent and non-patent literature within the Orbit Intelligence platform.

              DNA sequence database Orbit BioSequence tabs
              More than 480 million sequences extracted from 1.4M patent publications
              Family-oriented non-redundant view
              Specific algorithms for short sequences such as CDRs
              Combining sequence searching with chemistry and keyword searches in patents
              Benefits

              Why Our Customers Choose Orbit BioSequence for Their DNA Sequence Database Needs

              Family-based structure of OBS/FAMPAT is beneficial
              Combination of efficient biosequence search and comprehensive full-text database is highly advantageous
              Combination of different search approaches is a very helpful feature of OBS
              Search capacity/performance is impressive. Filtering works, even for large hit numbers.
              User-friendly search interface
              Coverage of patent biosequences
              Excel exports include alignments and cover all your needs.
              Previous searches are saved, and results can be revisited.
              Key features

              Combine Your DNA Sequence Database Search With a Full-Text Keyword Search or Chemistry Search

              This extremely powerful feature is quite unique. You can filter your OBS results to keep the best and most meaningful hits and then combine your findings with a full-text keyword search or chemistry. Finally, your combined results can be viewed together: alignments, keyword-in-context, and chemical hits.

              Informative Graphics to Help You Recognize Alignments Quickly

              Alignments can be long and unfathomable. We have designed a quick-to-comprehend, compact graphic that can be viewed instead of, or as well as, by alignments per se.

              DNA sequence database Orbit BioSequence informative graphics section

              More Than 1.4 Million Patent Publications With Sequences

              Including more than 300K manually extracted from patents.

              Non-patent sequences to complete your prior art search.

              All database types can be searched together.

              DNA sequence database Orbit BioSequence databases section

              Patent Family View for Non-redundant Results, Helping You Visualize What You Need

              We provide a comprehensive set of publications per family.  It is critical to determine whether a sequence is claimed in an application but not in a grant, or which authorities are covered for a sequence. Seeing one patent per family is simply not enough.

              The Filters You Need

              Though we constantly improve and add new filters, all essential filters are available for alignment quality, claimed sequences, multiple queries and normalized organisms. Each filter action saves your results in your search history allowing you to combine your hits with any other Orbit Intelligence search.

              DNA sequence database Orbit BioSequence filters section

              Highlighted Claimed Sequences for Faster FTO

              We automatically tell you if sequences are claimed and in which claims they are.

              Get Smart With CDRs and Other Antibody Sequences Using the Proper Algorithms, Filters and Results Combinations

              Searching for antibody sequences is complex. We have designed OBS to make it as simple as possible for you to search CDRs and chains.

              DNA sequence database Orbit BioSequence antibody sequences section

              Search Your DNA and Amino Acid Sequences in Orbit BioSequence

              Orbit BioSequence allows you to perform sequence searching in a fully featured patent platform. The software was specially designed for IP searchers and allows you to see sequence alignments in a patent and family context. Combine and analyze all sequences, small molecules, texts, concepts and legal status searches.
