DYK, Circuit Judge.
The Roslin Institute of Edinburgh, Scotland (Roslin) is the assignee of U.S. Patent Application No. 09/225,233 (the '233 application) and appeals from a final decision of the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (Board). The Board held that all of Roslin’s pending claims — claims 155-159 and 164 — were unpatentable subject matter under 35 U.S.C. § 101. The Board also rejected Roslin’s claims as anticipated and obvious under 35 U.S.C. §§ 102 and 103. We affirm the Board’s rejection of the claims under § 101.
