TIDMFGN Futuragene PLC 05 January 2010 ? 5 January 2010 FuturaGene PLC Additional cell wall modification patent granted in Japan FuturaGene PLC ("FuturaGene" or "the Group", AIM: FGN), a leader in plant genetic research and development for global forestry, biofuel and agricultural markets, has been granted a second cell wall modification patent in Japan. The new patent augments the Japanese patent issued in April 2009 and covers additional proteins. Both patents cover transgenic plants expressing cell wall modifying proteins that result in higher biomass, faster growth rate, higher cellulose content, higher amenability for digestion by ruminants, or increased resistance to heat, biodegradation or pests. Dr Stanley Hirsch, FuturaGene CEO said, "This patent consolidates FuturaGene's global intellectual property position in the critical area of cell wall modification, which is a fundamental technology for yield enhancement in plants. We believe this is very significant for the sustainable industrial forestry, biofuel and biopower sectors. The fact that Japan is home to some of the world's largest pulp and paper producers further underlines the importance of FuturaGene's patents."
