  • Patent number: 6329507
    Abstract: The present invention discloses novel proteins which are dimers and multimers of single chain polypeptides. The single chain polypeptides having two domains derived from the immunoglobulin superfamily which are joined by a peptide linker. The dimers and multimers being formed by non-covalent linking of the single chain polypeptides.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: December 11, 2001
    Assignee: The Dow Chemical Company
    Inventors: Peter S. Mezes, Ruth A. Richard, Joseph A. Affholter, Nicolas J. Kotite

  • Patent number: 5976845
    Abstract: This invention concerns a subset of composite Hum4 V.sub.L, V.sub.H antibodies with high affinities to a high molecular weight, tumor-associated sialylated glycoprotein antigen (TAG-72) of human origin. These antibodies have variable regions with (1) V.sub.L segments derived from the human subgroup IV germline gene, and (2) a V.sub.H segment which is capable of combining with the V.sub.L to form a three dimensional structure having the ability to bind TAG-72. In vivo methods of treatment and diagnostic assay using these composite antibodies is also disclosed.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 7, 1995
    Date of Patent: November 2, 1999
    Assignee: The Dow Chemical Company
