Fibronectin-based binding molecules and uses thereof

The invention provides fibronectin type III (Fn3)-based binding molecules that bind to a specific target antigen. The invention further provides bispecific Fn3-based binding molecules that bind to two or more targets simultaneously. The Fn3-based binding molecules of the invention can also be linked together to form multispecific Fn3-based binding molecules, and/or can be conjugated to a non-Fn3 moiety, such as, Human Serum Albumin (HSA), for improved half life and stability. The invention also provides methods for generating, screening and using Fn3-based binding molecules in a variety of therapeutic and diagnostic applications.
