Abstract

Multifunctional proteins having M-CSF activity and at least one other bioactivity not found together in a single naturally occuring molecule are described. These multifunctional M-CSF proteins can be produced by the expression of fused genes which are also described. These multifunctional M-CSF proteins have increased therapeutic potential.
