MULTIVALENT ANTIGEN-BINDING PROTEINS

摘要

We have produced a heterodimer Fv from two complementary mixed sFv's which has been shown to have the size of a dimer of the sFv's. The N-terminal analysis has shown that the active heterodimer Fv contains two polypeptide chains. The heterodimer Fv has been shown to be active for both fluorescein and TAG-72 binding. All publications cited herein are incorporated fully into this disclosure by reference. From the foregoing it will be appreciated that, although specific embodiments of the invention have been described herein for purposes of illustration, various modifications may be made without deviating from the spirit and scope of the invention and the following claims. As examples, the steps of the preferred embodiment constitute only one form of carrying out the process in which the invention may be embodied.
