Abstract
The present invention relates to polypeptide consisting of three TNF homology domains of TNF-ligand family members proteins (THD) that specifically bind to the extracellular part of TNFR2, wherein C-terminal and N-terminal reference points are defined by consensus sequences. The THIDs are linked by short stretches of further C-terminal and/or N-terminal amino acids of the THD or variants thereof as well as by peptide linkers. These peptides have an improved stability. Furthermore the invention relates to polypeptide multimers comprising several of the polypeptides of the present invention.
