In certain aspects, the disclosure provides soluble heteromeric polypeptide complexes comprising an extracellular domain of a type I serine/threonine kinase receptor of the TGF-beta family and an extracellular domain of a type II serine/threonine kinase receptor of the TGF-beta family. In some embodiments, the disclosure provides soluble polypeptide complexes comprising an extracellular domain of a type II receptor selected from: ActRIIA, ActRIIB, TGFBRII, BMPRII, and MISRII. In some embodiments, the disclosure provides soluble polypeptide complexes comprising an extracellular domain of a type I receptor selected from: ALK1, ALK2, ALK3, ALK4, ALK5, ALK6, and ALK7. Optionally the soluble complex is a heterodimer. In certain aspects, such soluble polypeptide complexes may be used to regulate (promote or inhibit) growth of tissues or cells including, for example, muscle, bone, cartilage, fat, neural tissue, tumors, cancerous cells, and/or cells of hematopoietic lineages, including red blood cells. In certain aspects, such soluble polypeptide complexes are can be used to improve muscle formation, bone formation, hematopoiesis, metabolic parameters, and disorders associated with these tissues, cellular networks, and endocrine systems.

ALK7 binding proteins and uses thereof

In certain aspects, the disclosure provides soluble single-arm heteromeric polypeptide complexes comprising an extracellular domain of a type I serine/threonine kinase receptor of the TGF-beta family or an extracellular domain of a type II serine/threonine kinase receptor of the TGF-beta family. In some embodiments, the disclosure provides soluble single-arm polypeptide complexes comprising an extracellular domain of a type II receptor selected from: ActRIIA, ActRIIB, TGFBRII, BMPRII, and MISRII. In some embodiments, the disclosure provides soluble single-arm polypeptide complexes comprising an extracellular domain of a type I receptor selected from: ALK1, ALK2, ALK3, ALK4, ALK5, ALK6, and ALK7. Optionally the soluble complex is a heterodimer. In certain aspects, such soluble polypeptide complexes may be used for the treatment or prevention of various TGF-beta associated conditions, including without limitation diseases and disorders associated with, for example, cancer, muscle, bone, fat, red blood cells, metabolism, fibrosis and other tissues that are affected by one or more ligands of the TGF-beta superfamily.

Single-arm type I and type II receptor fusion proteins and uses thereof

Multi-specific binding proteins that bind to and kill human cancer cells expressing epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2 or ErbB2), but does not kill non-cancerous healthy human cells expressing HER2 are described, as well as pharmaceutical compositions and therapeutic methods useful for the treatment of HER2 expressing cancer. The invention also relates to multi-specific binding proteins that trigger CD8+ T cell killing of tumor cells.
