Abstract: 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.

Abstract: The present invention provides Fc-fused protein constructs, which as monovalent dimers have a higher serum half-life compared to a native/natural molecule, and are, therefore, advantageous for achieving higher titers of the proteins during production, higher stability during storage, and improved efficacy when used as a therapeutic. Also provided are Fc-fused protein constructs having mutations in the Fc region that reduce effector functions, which have increased activity to inhibit tumor growth and are, therefore, advantageous when used as a cancer therapy.
