Abstract
The present invention discloses multivalent single chain antibodies which have two or more biologically active antigen binding sites. The multivalent single chain antibodies are formed by using a peptide linker to covalently link two or more single chain antibodies, each single chain antibody having a variable light domain linked to a variable heavy chain domain by a peptide linker.
