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.
