The current invention involves a series of fully recombinant multimerizedforms ofimmunoglobulin Fc which thereby present polyvalent immunoglobulin Fc to immunecellreceptors. The fusion proteins exist as both homodimeric and highly orderedmultimericfractions, termed stradomers. In comparison to the homodimeric fraction,purified multimericstradomers have higher affinity and avidity for Fc.gamma.Rs with slowerdissociation and are useful inthe treatment and prevention of disease. The current invention demonstratesthat directly linkingIgG1 Fc regions to multimerization domains leads to enhanced multimerizationand biologicalactivity.
