The present invention provides a protein complex comprising heterodimerizing regions HRI and HRII, each comprised of antiparallel β-strands and intervening regions wherein HRI and HRII are each interspersed fusion proteins of two human constant regions of an immunoglobulin or immunoglobulin-like proteins. The present invention also provides nucleic acid molecules comprising a sequence encoding said protein complexes and vectors comprising the nucleic acid. The present invention also provides the protein complex, the nucleic acid and the vector for use as a medicament. The present invention further provides a method of determining the amino acid sequence of HRI and/or of the amino acid sequence of HRII. The present invention also provides a method of producing amino acid chains of HRI and/or amino acid chains of HRII. The present invention further provides the protein complex for use in the N prophylaxis, treatment or diagnosis of a disorder or a disease.

Heterodimerizing Ig domains

The present invention relates to a modular multivalent antigen-binding protein complex, use of the antigen-binding protein complex in medicine and use of the antigen-binding protein complex in the prophylaxis, treatment or diagnosis of a disorder or disease.

Multivalent binding molecules

The invention provides for an inhibitor of the huTNFRI receptor which is a human or humanized antibody construct that monovalently recognizes huTNFRI through an antigen-binding moiety, which is characterized by specific CDR sequences, a pharmaceutical preparation thereof, method of producing the inhibitor and the medical use of the inhibitor.
