ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a method of producing single-chain Fv molecules in eukaryotic cells, and to secretable sFv proteins having at least one non-naturally occurring glycosylation site. The single-chain Fv molecules produced by this method are biologically active and capable of being secreted from eukaryotic cells into the cell culture medium.
