(R) Trademark in terms?

Is it ignored by google?

Our site recently began selling a certain brand of "widgets". The mfg requires us to not say "brand widgets", but instead to say "brand (R) widgets".

We're using the actual ® symbol in the text and I'm wondering if that will hurt our google rankings?

We used to be #2 and are now #1 for the search: brand widgets.

Does google ignore the ® symbol?
