Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for producing multivalent Fab fragments. In particular, the invention relates to a method for the generation of trimeric Fab fragments by co-expression of a gene construct comprising a heavy chain portion of a Fab fragment and an in-frame fused collagen-like peptide, and a gene construct consisting of a light chain portion of an IgG in mammalian cells. Uses of molecules generated using the method of the invention are also described.
