Company patents
Alector LLC
Alector LLC's patent strategy is heavily concentrated in Peptides & Proteins, representing 97.1% of its portfolio, with a notable surge in 2024 (YoY +47.1%) followed by a significant decline in 2025 and so far in 2026, suggesting a potential shift in focus despite its core importance. The rapid growth in Material & Chemical Analysis in 2024 (YoY +400.0%) from a smaller base indicates an emerging, albeit minor, diversification in its R&D.
