  • Publication number: 20220251242
    Abstract: The present invention provides heterodimer pairs that can comprise a first heterodimer and a second heterodimer wherein each heterodimer comprises an immunoglobulin heavy chain or fragment thereof and an immunoglobulin light chain or fragment thereof. At least one of the heterodimers can comprise one or more amino acid modifications in the CH1 and/or CL domains, one or more amino acid modifications in the VH and/or VL domains, or a combination thereof. The modified amino acid(s) can be part of the interface between the light chain and heavy chain and are typically modified to create preferential pairing between each heavy chain and a desired light chain such that when the two heavy chains and two light chains of the heterodimer pair are co-expressed in a cell, the heavy chain of the first heterodimer preferentially pairs with one of the light chains rather than the other. Likewise, the heavy chain of the second heterodimer typically preferentially pairs with the second light chain rather than first.

  • Patent number: 11248037
    Abstract: Provided herein are multifunctional heteromultimer proteins. In specific embodiments is a heteromultimer comprising: at least two polypeptide constructs, each polypeptide construct comprising at least one cargo polypeptide attached to a transporter polypeptide, said transporter polypeptides derived from a monomeric native protein such that said monomeric constructs associate to form the heteromultimer and said transporter polypeptides associate to form a quasi-native structure of the monomeric native protein or analog thereof. These therapeutically novel molecules encompass heteromultimers comprising constructs that function as scaffolds for the conjugation or fusion of therapeutic molecular entities (cargo polypeptides) resulting in the creation of bispecific or multivalent molecular species. Provided herein is a method for creation of bispecific or multivalent molecular species.
