     Herein is reported a multi-function protein comprising an antibody fragment and a MHC class I component and its use for removal of cancer cells by targeted attraction of circulating virus-specific cytotoxic T-cells. 
     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     Melanoma chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan (MCSP) is a large transmembrane proteoglycan that is expressed in the majority of melanoma cancers. MCSP is also expressed on other cancers, including glioblastomas, osteosarcomas, chondrosarcomas, some types of ALL and AML, and in basal cell carcinomas. It serves as an early cell surface melanoma progression marker and is involved in stimulating tumor cell proliferation, metastasis, migration, invasion, and angiogenesis (see e.g. Staub, E., et al., FEBS Lett. 527 (2002) 114-118; Campoli, M., et al., Crit. Rev. Immun. 24 (2004) 267-296; Vergilis, I. J., J. Invest. Dermatol. 125 (2005) 526-531; Yang, J., J. Chem. Biol. 165 (2004) 881-891; Luo, W., J. Immunol. 176 (2006) 6046-6054). 
     The MHC Class I protein consists of an α-chain (α-1 to 3 and a transmembrane domain) and β2-microglobulin. It is polygenic (3 gene loci for MI-IC-class I protein in the haploid genome) giving rise to six different MHC class I protein α-chains (in humans two HLA-A, two HLA-B, two HLA-C). The MHC is further polymorphic. The human HLA-A allele A*0201 is prevalent in about 30% to 50% of the caucasian population (see e.g. Player, M. A., et al., J Immunother. Emphasis Tumor Immunol. 19 (1996) 357-363). 
     Human cytomegalovirus huCMV(=human herpesvirus 5, HHV-5) is one of the largest human viruses. Its genome comprises around 230,000 bp linear double stranded DNA and encodes more than 160 proteins (see e.g. Davison, A.J., et al., J. Gen. Virol. 84 (2003) 17-28). 
     The CMV has evolved to become a sublime parasite of the human genome and it is a potent immunogen and triggers strong immune responses from all arms of the immune system. This virus appears to be among the most immunodominant antigens known to the human immune system and stimulates CD8 + -T-cell responses of unprecedented magnitude. 
     The CMV “latency” depends on chronic immune suppression of CMV viruses rather than a change in the pattern of viral transcription (see e.g. Moss &amp; Khan, Human Immunology 65 (2004) 456-464). 
     CD8 + -T-cell immune responses are not directed evenly against all CMV proteins but are focused. The CMV proteins pp65 and IE-1 are the predominant targets (see e.g. McLaughlin-Taylor, E., et al., J. Med. Virol. 43 (1994) 103-110; Moss &amp; Khan, Human Immunology 65 (2004) 456-464). 
     The frequency of CMV-specific T-cells is very high with frequencies for individual peptides in the order of up to 1 to 2% of the total CD8 + -T-cell repertoire (see e.g. Moss &amp; Khan, Human Immunology supra; Wills, M. R., et al., J. Virol. 70 (1996) 7569-7579). 
     The CMV-specific CD8 + -T-cell response increases markedly with age and individual HLA-peptide tetramers frequently stain in excess of 10% of the total CD8 + -T-cell pool (see e.g. Khan, N., et al., J. Immunol. 169 (2002) 1984-1992). 
     The total CD8 + -T-cell response in healthy elderly donors could constitute approximately 50% of the CD8 + -T-cell repertoire. 
     The enormous CD8 + -T-cell expansions are often very clonally restricted, and it is estimated that CMV is the cause of at least 30% of the clonal CD8 + -T-cell expansions that are seen in peripheral blood with aging. The total CD8 + -T-cell count is twice as high in CMV-seropositive donors older than age 60 years in comparison to a CMV-seronegative cohort (see e.g. Looney, R. J., et al., Clin. Immunol. 90 (1999) 213-219). 
     A fusion of soluble HLA and β-2-microglobulin is reported by Mottez, E., et al., Eur. J. Immunol. 21 (1991) 467-471; Godeau, F., et al., J. Biol. Chem. 267 (1992) 24223-24229 and Mage, M. G., et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. 89 (1992) 10658-10662. A fusion of viral-derived peptide with soluble HLA and β-2-microglobulin is reported by Mottez, E., et al., J. Exp. Med. 181 (1995) 493-502. A fusion of an immunoglobulin heavy chain with soluble HLA and co-expressed β-2-microglobulin is reported by Dal Porto, J., et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 90 (1993) 6671-6675. A tetrameric multi-function protein of biotinylated peptide-soluble HLA and β-2-microglobulin with streptavidin chemically coupled to a Fab is described by Robert, B., et al., Eur. J. Immun. 30 (2000) 3165-3170. A chemically coupled Fab with a fusion of viral-derived peptide with soluble HLA and β-2-microglobulin is reported by Robert, B., et al., Cancer Immunity 1 (2001) 2. A fusion of a viral-derived peptide with soluble HLA and β-2-microglobulin to a murine monoclonal antibody heavy chain is reported by Greten, T. F., et al., J. Immunol. Methods 271 (2002) 125-135. An  E. coli  expression of scFv fusions without peptide, in vitro refolding and peptide loading is reported by Lev, A., et al., J. Immunol. 169 (2002) 2988-2996; Lev, A., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. 101 (2004) 9051-9056, and Novak, H., et al., Int. J. Cancer 120 (2007) 329-336. The use of biotinylated soluble MHC loaded with peptides and coupled to streptavidin fused Fab or scFv antibodies is reported by Mous, R., et al., Leukemia 20 (2006) 1096-1102. 
     In WO 2005/099361 are reported MHC class I-peptide-antibody conjugates with modified beta-2-microglobulin. Exemplary conjugates as reported in WO 2005/099361 are obtained by in vitro conjugation of the alpha chain of the MHC-multi-function protein (HLA) or by the co-expression from separate genes in the same cell. 
     In US 2004/0091488 antigenic constructs of major histocompatibility multi-function protein class I antigens with specific carrier molecules are reported. These reported fusion polypeptides lack the hinge region. 
     In WO 02/102299 methods and pharmaceutical compositions for immune deception, particularly useful in the treatment of cancer are reported. Antibody-mediated targeting of human single-chain class I MHC with covalently linked peptides induces efficient killing of tumor cells by tumor or viral-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes are reported by Oved, K., et al. (Immunotherapy 54 (2005) 867-879). Robert, B., et al. (Cancer Immun. 1 (2001) 1-13) report redirecting anti-viral CTL against cancer cells by surface targeting of monomeric MHC class 1-viral peptide conjugated to antibody fragments. Active antiviral T-lymphocyte response can be redirected against tumor cells by antitumor antibody×MHC/viral peptide conjugates (Cresson, V., et al., Clin. Cancer Res. 12 (2006) 7422-7430). Robert, B., et al. (Eur. J. Immunol. 30 (2000) 3165-3170) report antibody-conjugated MHC class I tetramers can target tumor cells for specific lysis by T lymphocytes. Antigenic constructs of major histocompatibility complex class I antigens with specific carrier molecules, the preparation and use thereof are reported in US 2004/0091488. Bluemel, C., et al. (Cancer Immunol. 59 (2010) 1197-1209) report epitope distance to the target cell membrane and antigen size determine the potency of T cell-mediated lysis by BiTE antibodies specific for a large melanoma surface antigen. Redirected lysis of human melanoma cells by a MCSP/CD3-bispecific BiTE antibody that engages patient derived T cells is reported by Torisu-Itakura, H., et al. (J. Immunother. 34 (2011) 597-605). Greten, T., et al. (J. Immunol. Meth. 271 (2002) 125-135) report peptide-beta2-microglobulin-MHC fusion molecules bind antigen-specific T cells and can be used for multivalent MHC-Ig complexes. Redirection of CMV-specific CTL towards B-CLL via CD20-targeted HLA/CMV complexes is reported by Mous, R., et al. (Leukemia 20 (2006) 1096-1102). In WO 2012/175508 removal of target cells by circulating virus-specific cytotoxic T-cells using MHC class I comprising complexes is reported. 
     SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
     Herein is reported a multi-function protein comprising exactly one antigen presenting domain as first part, one antibody Fc-region as second part, and at least one antigen binding site that is derived from an antibody and that specifically binds to a target antigen as third part.

     I. DEFINITIONS 
     “Affinity” refers to the strength of the sum total of non-covalent interactions between a single binding site of a molecule (e.g., an antibody) and its binding partner (e.g., an antigen). Unless indicated otherwise, as used herein, “binding affinity” refers to intrinsic binding affinity which reflects a 1:1 interaction between members of a binding pair (e.g., antibody and antigen). The affinity of a molecule X for its partner Y can generally be represented by the dissociation constant (Kd). Affinity can be measured by common methods known in the art, including those described herein. Specific illustrative and exemplary embodiments for measuring binding affinity are described in the following. 
     The term “amino acid” as used within this application denotes the group of carboxy α-amino acids, which directly or in form of a precursor can be encoded by a nucleic acid. The individual amino acids are encoded by nucleic acids consisting of three nucleotides, so called codons or base-triplets. Each amino acid is encoded by at least one codon. This is known as “degeneration of the genetic code”. The term “amino acid” as used within this application denotes the naturally occurring carboxy α-amino acids comprising alanine (three letter code: ala, one letter code: A), arginine (arg, R), asparagine (asn, N), aspartic acid (asp, D), cysteine (cys, C), glutamine (gln, Q), glutamic acid (glu, E), glycine (gly, G), histidine (his, H), isoleucine (ile, I), leucine (leu, L), lysine (lys, K), methionine (met, M), phenylalanine (phe, F), proline (pro, P), serine (ser, S), threonine (thr, T), tryptophan (trp, W), tyrosine (tyr, Y), and valine (val, V). 
     The terms “anti-target antibody” and “an antibody that binds to a target” refer to an antibody that is capable of binding a target with sufficient affinity such that the antibody is useful as a diagnostic and/or therapeutic agent in targeting the target. In certain embodiments, an antibody that binds to the target has a dissociation constant (Kd) of ≤10 nM, ≤1 nM, ≤0.1 nM, ≤0.01 nM, or ≤0.001 nM (e.g. 10 −8  M or less, e.g. from 10 −8  M to 10 −13  M, e.g., from 10 −9  M to 10 −13  M). 
     The term “antibody” herein is used in the broadest sense and encompasses various antibody structures, including but not limited to monoclonal antibodies, polyclonal antibodies, multispecific antibodies (e.g., bispecific antibodies), and antibody fragments so long as they exhibit the desired antigen-binding activity. 
     An “antibody fragment” refers to a molecule other than an intact antibody that comprises a portion of an intact antibody that binds the antigen to which the intact antibody binds. Examples of antibody fragments include but are not limited to Fv, Fab, Fab′, Fab′-SH, F(ab′) 2 ; diabodies; linear antibodies; single-chain antibody molecules (e.g. scFv); single domain antibodies; and multispecific antibodies formed from antibody fragments. 
     The term “antigen binding site” denotes a proteinaceous moiety that can specifically bind to a target. Exemplary antigen binding sites are peptides, antibody fragments, domain antibodies, or variable domains of single chain antibodies (e.g. camel or shark antibodies). The antigen binding site can be a naturally occurring antigen binding site or an engineered antigen binding site. Exemplary engineered antigen binding sites are DARPINs, domain exchanged antibodies or domain exchanged antibody fragments, and dual variable domain antibodies. 
     The “class” of an antibody refers to the type of constant domain or constant region possessed by its heavy chain. There are five major classes of antibodies: IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG, and IgM, and several of these may be further divided into subclasses (isotypes), e.g., IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgA1, and IgA2. The heavy chain constant domains that correspond to the different classes of immunoglobulins are called α, δ, ε, γ, and μ, respectively. 
     The term “class I MHC molecule with a relative frequency of” denotes that the respective class I MHC molecule has a frequency of occurrence in a specific population of humans or within all humans of the given relative frequency. That is a class I MHC molecule with a relative frequency of 10% or more can be found in 10% or more of all humans of a specific population, such as e.g. in 27.2% of all humans of European origin. 
     The term “comprising” as used herein encompasses the tem “consisting”, i.e. a change from comprising to consisting is considered to be a limitation. 
     The “conjugation” of a multi-function protein to its conjugation partner can be performed by different methods, such as chemical binding, or binding via a specific binding pair. The term “conjugation partner” denotes e.g. polypeptides, detectable labels, members of specific binding pairs. In one embodiment the conjugation of multi-function protein to its conjugation partner is performed by chemically binding via N-terminal and/or ε-amino groups (lysine), ε-amino groups of different lysins, carboxy-, sulfhydryl-, hydroxyl-, and/or phenolic functional groups of the amino acid sequence of the parts of the multi-function protein, and/or sugar alcohol groups of the carbohydrate structure of the multi-function protein. In one embodiment the multi-function protein is conjugated to its conjugation partner via a specific binding pair. 
     The term “cytotoxic agent” as used herein refers to a substance that inhibits or prevents a cellular function and/or causes cell death or destruction. Cytotoxic agents include, but are not limited to, radioactive isotopes (e.g., At 211 , I 131 , I 125 Y 90 , Re 186 , Re 188 , Sm 153 , Bi 212 , P 32 , Pb 212  and radioactive isotopes of Lu); chemotherapeutic agents or drugs (e.g., methotrexate, adriamicin, vinca alkaloids (vincristine, vinblastine, etoposide), doxorubicin, melphalan, mitomycin C, chlorambucil, daunorubicin or other intercalating agents); growth inhibitory agents; enzymes and fragments thereof such as nucleolytic enzymes; antibiotics; toxins such as small molecule toxins or enzymatically active toxins of bacterial, fungal, plant or animal origin, including fragments and/or variants thereof; and the various antitumor or anticancer agents. 
     Chromogens (fluorescent or luminescent groups and dyes), enzymes, NMR-active groups or metal particles, haptens, e.g. digoxigenin, are examples of “detectable labels”. The detectable label can also be a photoactivatable crosslinking group, e.g. an azido or an azirine group. Metal chelates which can be detected by electrochemiluminescense are also suitable signal-emitting groups, with particular interest being given to ruthenium chelates, e.g. a ruthenium (bispyridyl)3 2+  chelate. Suitable ruthenium labeling groups are described, for example, in EP 0 580 979, WO 90/05301, WO 90/11511, and WO 92/14138. For direct detection the labeling group can be selected from any known detectable marker groups, such as dyes, luminescent labeling groups such as chemiluminescent groups, e.g. acridinium esters or dioxetanes, or fluorescent dyes, e.g. fluorescein, coumarin, rhodamine, oxazine, resorufin, cyanine and derivatives thereof. Other examples of labeling groups are luminescent metal complexes, such as ruthenium or europium complexes, enzymes, e.g. as used for ELISA or for CEDIA (Cloned Enzyme Donor Immunoassay, e.g. EP-A-0 061 888), and radioisotopes. 
     “Effector functions” refer to those biological activities attributable to the Fc-region of an antibody, which vary with the antibody isotype. Examples of antibody effector functions include: C1q binding and complement dependent cytotoxicity (CDC); Fc receptor binding; antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC); phagocytosis; down regulation of cell surface receptors (e.g. B cell receptor); and B cell activation. 
     An “effective amount” of an agent, e.g., a pharmaceutical formulation, refers to an amount effective, at dosages and for periods of time necessary, to achieve the desired therapeutic or prophylactic result. 
     The term “expression” as used herein refers to transcription and/or translation and secretion processes occurring within a cell. The level of transcription of a nucleic acid sequence of interest in a cell can be determined on the basis of the amount of corresponding mRNA that is present in the cell. For example, mRNA transcribed from a sequence of interest can be quantitated by RT-PCR or by Northern hybridization (see Sambrook, J., et al., Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual, Second Edition, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, Cold Spring Harbor, N.Y. (1989)). Polypeptides encoded by a nucleic acid can be quantitated by various methods, e.g. by ELISA, by assaying for the biological activity of the polypeptide, or by employing assays that are independent of such activity, such as Western blotting or radioimmunoassay, using immunoglobulins that recognize and bind to the polypeptide (see Sambrook, et al., (1989), supra). 
     An “expression cassette” denotes a construct that contains the necessary regulatory elements, such as promoter and polyadenylation site, for expression of at least the contained nucleic acid in a cell. 
     The term “expression machinery” denotes the sum of the enzymes, cofactors, etc. of a cell that is involved in the steps beginning with the transcription step of a nucleic acid or gene (i.e. also called “gene expression machinery”) to the post-translational modification of the polypeptide encoded by the nucleic acid. The expression machinery e.g. comprises the steps of transcription of DNA into pre-mRNA, pre-mRNA splicing to mature mRNA, translation into a polypeptide of the mRNA, and post translational modification of the polypeptide. 
     An “expression plasmid” is a nucleic acid providing all required elements for the expression of the comprised structural gene(s) in a host cell. Typically, an expression plasmid comprises a prokaryotic plasmid propagation unit, e.g. for E. coli, comprising an origin of replication, and a selectable marker, an eukaryotic selection marker, and one or more expression cassettes for the expression of the structural gene(s) of interest each comprising a promoter, a structural gene, and a transcription terminator including a polyadenylation signal. Gene expression is usually placed under the control of a promoter, and such a structural gene is said to be “operably linked to” the promoter. Similarly, a regulatory element and a core promoter are operably linked if the regulatory element modulates the activity of the core promoter. 
     The term “Fc-region” denotes the C-terminal region of an immunoglobulin heavy chain. The Fc-region is a dimeric molecule comprising two disulfide-linked antibody heavy chain polypeptides. An Fc-region can be generated by papain digestion, or IdeS digestion, or trypsin digestion of an intact (full length) antibody or can be produced recombinantly. 
     The Fc-region obtainable from a full length antibody or immunoglobulin comprises at least residues 226 (Cys) to the C-terminus of the full length heavy chain and, thus, comprises a part of the hinge region and two or three constant domains, i.e. a CH2 domain, a CH3 domain, and an additional/extra CH4 domain in case of IgE and IgM class antibodies. However, the C-terminal lysine (Lys447) of the Fc-region may or may not be present. Unless otherwise specified herein, numbering of amino acid residues in the Fc-region or constant region is according to the EU numbering system, also called the EU index, as described in Kabat, E. A., et al., Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest, 5th ed., Public Health Service, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Md. (1991), NIH Publication 91-3242. 
     The formation of the dimeric Fc-region comprising two identical or non-identical antibody heavy chain Fc-region polypeptides is mediated by the non-covalent dimerization of the comprised CH3 domains (for involved amino acid residues see e.g. Dall&#39;Acqua, W., Biochem. 37 (1998) 9266-9273). The Fc-region is covalently stabilized by the formation of disulfide bonds in the hinge region (see e.g. Huber, R., et al., Nature 264 (1976) 415-420; Thies, M. J., et al., J. Mol. Biol. 293 (1999) 67-79). 
     It is known from U.S. Pat. No. 5,648,260 and U.S. Pat. No. 5,624,821 that the modification of defined amino acid residues in the Fc-region results in phenotypic effects. 
     The multi-function protein as reported herein may comprise in one embodiment as antibody heavy chain hinge region polypeptide a human Fc-region or an Fc-region derived from human origin. In a further embodiment the Fc-region is either an Fc-region of a human antibody of the subclass IgG4 or an Fc-region of a human antibody of the subclass IgG1, IgG2, or IgG3, which is modified in such a way that no Fcγ receptor (e.g. FcγRIIIa) binding and/or no C1q binding can be detected. In one embodiment the Fc-region is a human Fc-region and especially either from human IgG4 subclass or a mutated Fc-region from human IgG1 subclass. In one embodiment the Fc-region is from human IgG1 subclass with mutations L234A and L235A and P329G. While IgG4 shows reduced Fcγ receptor (FcγRIIIa) binding, antibodies of other IgG subclasses show strong binding. However Pro238, Asp265, Asp270, Asn297 (loss of Fc carbohydrate), Pro329, Leu234, Leu235, Gly236, Gly237, Ile253, Ser254, Lys288, Thr307, Gln311, Asn434, or/and His435 are residues which, if altered, provide also reduced Fcγ receptor binding (Shields, R. L., et al., J. Biol. Chem. 276 (2001) 6591-6604; Lund, J., et al., FASEB J. 9 (1995) 115-119; Morgan, A., et al., Immunology 86 (1995) 319-324; EP 0 307 434). In one embodiment a multi-function protein as reported herein is in regard to Fcγ receptor binding of IgG4 subclass or of IgG1 or IgG2 subclass, with a mutation in L234, L235, P329 and/or D265, and/or contains the PVA236 mutation. In one embodiment the mutations are S228P, L234A, L235A, L235E, PVA236 (PVA236 denotes that the amino acid sequence ELLG (given in one letter amino acid code) from amino acid position 233 to 236 of IgG1 or EFLG of IgG4 is replaced by PVA) and/or P329G. In one embodiment the mutations are S228P and P329G of IgG4, and L234A, L235A and P329G of IgG1. The Fc-region of an antibody is directly involved in ADCC (antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity) and CDC (complement-dependent cytotoxicity). A multi-function protein which does not bind Fcγ receptor and/or complement factor C1q does not elicit antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and/or complement dependent cytotoxicity (CDC).

     The terms “host cell”, “host cell line”, and “host cell culture” are used interchangeably and refer to cells into which exogenous nucleic acid has been introduced, including the progeny of such cells. Host cells include “transformants” and “transformed cells,” which include the primary transformed cell and progeny derived therefrom without regard to the number of passages. Progeny may not be completely identical in nucleic acid content to a parent cell, but may contain mutations. Mutant progeny that have the same function or biological activity as screened or selected for in the originally transformed cell are included herein. 
     The term “cell” includes both prokaryotic cells, which are used for propagation of plasmids, and eukaryotic cells, which are used for the expression of a nucleic acid. In one embodiment the eukaryotic cell is a mammalian cell. In one embodiment the mammalian cell is selected from the group of mammalian cells comprising CHO cells (e.g. CHO K1, CHO DG44), BHK cells, NS0 cells, Sp2/0 cells, HEK 293 cells, HEK 293 EBNA cells, PER.C6® cells, and COS cells. 
     A “human antibody” is one which possesses an amino acid sequence which corresponds to that of an antibody produced by a human or a human cell or derived from a non-human source that utilizes human antibody repertoires or other human antibody-encoding sequences. This definition of a human antibody specifically excludes a humanized antibody comprising non-human antigen-binding residues. 
     An “immunoconjugate” denotes a multi-function protein as reported herein conjugated to one or more heterologous molecule(s), including but not limited to a cytotoxic agent. 
     An “individual” or “subject” is a mammal. Mammals include, but are not limited to, domesticated animals (e.g., cows, sheep, cats, dogs, and horses), primates (e.g., humans and non-human primates such as monkeys), rabbits, and rodents (e.g., mice and rats). In certain embodiments, the individual or subject is a human. 
     An “isolated” multi-function protein is one which has been separated from a component of its natural environment. In some embodiments, a multi-function protein is purified to greater than 95% or 99% purity as determined by, for example, electrophoretic (e.g., SDS-PAGE, isoelectric focusing (IEF), capillary electrophoresis) or chromatographic (e.g., ion exchange or reverse phase HPLC). 
     An “isolated” nucleic acid refers to a nucleic acid molecule that has been separated from a component of its natural environment. An isolated nucleic acid includes a nucleic acid molecule contained in cells that ordinarily contain the nucleic acid molecule, but the nucleic acid molecule is present extrachromosomally or at a chromosomal location that is different from its natural chromosomal location. 
     The term “MCSP”, as used herein, refers to any native MCSP (Melanoma Chondroitin Sulfate Proteoglycan) from any vertebrate source, including mammals such as primates (e.g. humans) and rodents (e.g., mice and rats), unless otherwise indicated. The term encompasses “full-length”, unprocessed MCSP as well as any form of MCSP that results from processing in the cell. The term also encompasses naturally occurring variants of MCSP, e.g., splice variants or allelic variants. MCSP is also known as chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan 4 (CSPG4), chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan NG2, high molecular weight-melanoma associated antigen (HMW-MAA), and melanoma chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan. The amino acid sequence of an exemplary human MCSP is shown in SEQ ID NO: 1. See also Pluschke, G., et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 93 (1996) 9710-9715, Staub, E., et al., FEBS Lett. 527 (2002) 114-118, and GenBank Accession No: NP_001888. 
     The term “one antigen presenting domain” denotes exactly one, i.e. a single, antigen presenting domain as defined and excludes the presence of a further, i.e. second, antigen presenting domains defined. The term “one” denotes “exactly one” or “a single”. 
     “Operably linked” refers to a juxtaposition of two or more components, wherein the components so described are in a relationship permitting them to function in their intended manner. For example, a promoter and/or enhancer are operably linked to a coding sequence, if it acts in cis to control or modulate the transcription of the linked sequence. Generally, but not necessarily, the DNA sequences that are “operably linked” are contiguous and, where necessary to join two protein encoding regions such as a secretory leader and a polypeptide, contiguous and in (reading) frame. However, although an operably linked promoter is generally located upstream of the coding sequence, it is not necessarily contiguous with it. Enhancers do not have to be contiguous. An enhancer is operably linked to a coding sequence if the enhancer increases transcription of the coding sequence. Operably linked enhancers can be located upstream, within or downstream of coding sequences and at considerable distance from the promoter. A polyadenylation site is operably linked to a coding sequence if it is located at the downstream end of the coding sequence such that transcription proceeds through the coding sequence into the polyadenylation sequence. A translation stop codon is operably linked to an exonic nucleic acid sequence if it is located at the downstream end (3′ end) of the coding sequence such that translation proceeds through the coding sequence to the stop codon and is terminated there. Linking is accomplished by recombinant methods known in the art, e.g., using PCR methodology and/or by ligation at convenient restriction sites. If convenient restriction sites do not exist, then synthetic oligonucleotide adaptors or linkers are used in accord with conventional practice. 
     The term “package insert” is used to refer to instructions customarily included in commercial packages of therapeutic products, that contain information about the indications, usage, dosage, administration, combination therapy, contraindications and/or warnings concerning the use of such therapeutic products. 
     The term “peptide linker” denotes amino acid sequences of natural and/or synthetic origin. They consist of a linear amino acid chain wherein the 20 naturally occurring amino acids are the monomeric building blocks. The peptide linker has a length of from 1 to 50 amino acids, in one embodiment between 1 and 28 amino acids, in a further embodiment between 2 and 25 amino acids. The peptide linker may contain repetitive amino acid sequences or sequences of naturally occurring polypeptides. The linker has the function to ensure that polypeptides conjugated to each other can perform their biological activity by allowing the polypeptides to fold correctly and to be presented properly. In one embodiment the peptide linker is rich in glycine, glutamine, and/or serine residues. These residues are arranged e.g. in small repetitive units of up to five amino acids, such as GS (SEQ ID NO: 73), GGS (SEQ ID NO: 74), GGGS (SEQ ID NO: 75), and GGGGS (SEQ ID NO: 80). This small repetitive unit may be repeated for one to five times. At the amino- and/or carboxy-terminal ends of the multimeric unit up to six additional arbitrary, naturally occurring amino acids may be added. Other synthetic peptidic linkers are composed of a single amino acid, which is repeated between 10 to 20 times and may comprise at the amino- and/or carboxy-terminal end up to six additional arbitrary, naturally occurring amino acids. All peptidic linkers can be encoded by a nucleic acid molecule and therefore can be recombinantly expressed. As the linkers are themselves peptides, the polypeptide connected by the linker are connected to the linker via a peptide bond that is formed between two amino acids. 
     The term “pharmaceutical formulation” refers to a preparation which is in such form as to permit the biological activity of an active ingredient contained therein to be effective, and which contains no additional components which are unacceptably toxic to a subject to which the formulation would be administered. 
     A “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” refers to an ingredient in a pharmaceutical formulation, other than an active ingredient, which is nontoxic to a subject. A pharmaceutically acceptable carrier includes, but is not limited to, a buffer, excipient, stabilizer, or preservative. 
     A “polypeptide” is a polymer consisting of amino acids joined by peptide bonds, whether produced naturally or synthetically. Polypeptides of less than about 25 amino acid residues may be referred to as “peptides”, whereas molecules consisting of two or more polypeptides or comprising one polypeptide of more than 100 amino acid residues may be referred to as “proteins”. A polypeptide may also comprise non-amino acid components, such as carbohydrate groups, metal ions, or carboxylic acid esters. The non-amino acid components may be added by the cell, in which the polypeptide is expressed, and may vary with the type of cell. Polypeptides are defined herein in terms of their amino acid backbone structure or the nucleic acid encoding the same. Additions such as carbohydrate groups are generally not specified, but may be present nonetheless. 
     A “structural gene” denotes the region of a gene without a signal sequence, i.e. the coding region. 
     The term “T-cell response eliciting peptide” denotes a peptide that is presented in the peptide-binding grove of a class I MHC multi-function protein and which is recognized by circulating memory or effector T-cells. Recognition of the peptide results in an immune response effecting the removal of the cell presenting such a peptide-class I MHC multi-function protein. 
     As used herein, “treatment” (and grammatical variations thereof such as “treat” or “treating”) refers to clinical intervention in an attempt to alter the natural course of the individual being treated, and can be performed either for prophylaxis or during the course of clinical pathology. Desirable effects of treatment include, but are not limited to, preventing occurrence or recurrence of disease, alleviation of symptoms, diminishment of any direct or indirect pathological consequences of the disease, preventing metastasis, decreasing the rate of disease progression, amelioration or palliation of the disease state, and remission or improved prognosis. In some embodiments, antibodies of the invention are used to delay development of a disease or to slow the progression of a disease. 
     The term “variable region” or “variable domain” refers to the domain of an antibody heavy or light chain that is involved in binding the antibody to antigen. The variable domains of the heavy chain and light chain (VH and VL, respectively) of a native antibody generally have similar structures, with each domain comprising four conserved framework regions (FRs) and three hypervariable regions (HVRs). (See, e.g., Kindt, T. J., et al., Kuby Immunology, 6th ed., W. H. Freeman and Co., N.Y. (2007), page 91) A single VH or VL domain may be sufficient to confer antigen-binding specificity. Furthermore, antibodies that bind a particular antigen may be isolated using a VH or VL domain from an antibody that binds the antigen to screen a library of complementary VL or VH domains, respectively. See, e.g., Portolano, S., et al., J. Immunol. 150 (1993) 880-887; Clackson, T., et al., Nature 352 (1991) 624-628). 
     The term “vector”, as used herein, refers to a nucleic acid molecule capable of propagating another nucleic acid to which it is linked. The term includes the vector as a self-replicating nucleic acid structure as well as the vector incorporated into the genome of a host cell into which it has been introduced. Certain vectors are capable of directing the expression of nucleic acids to which they are operatively linked. Such vectors are referred to herein as “expression vectors”. 
     II. COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS 
     During recombinant production covalent peptide-MHC-immunoglobulin conjugates cannot be expressed at levels comparable to normal full length antibodies. This is only possible for certain specific formats. Full length antibody (IgG)-MHC fusions cannot be expressed in bacteria. Further, full length antibody (IgG) peptide-MHC-fusions cannot be expressed at significant levels. So far only fusions of antibody fragments (scFv and Fab, lacking a hinge and an Fc-region) could be expressed as MHC class I fusions in bacteria (preferably in  E. coli ). The expression was only successful via inclusion bodies followed by a complex refolding procedure which is a technical difficult process especially at larger scale. 
     An alternative is the recombinant expression of soluble MHC complexes in bacteria as such, i.e. without being fused to a full length antibody or antibody fragment, followed by a chemical conjugation or Biotin-Streptavidin mediated non-covalent coupling to an antibody fragment. Chemical conjugations are not site specific and lead to a large product heterogeneity compared to recombinantly produced fusion polypeptides. 
     Expression in eukaryotic was limited so far due to no or low expression levels. So far the only expression in mammalian cells is described in Greten, T. F. et al. (J. Immunol. Meth. 271 (2002) 125-135). However, the obtained yields are very low, and actually too low for a technical process and much lower than for normal antibodies. 
     It has now been found that full length antibodies (IgG) fused to peptide-MHC complexes can be recombinantly expressed at high levels comparable to normal antibodies when the fusion polypeptide carries only a single MHC complex. 
     A. Exemplary Multi-Function Protein 
     Herein is reported an antigen binding multi-function protein comprising as first part an antibody derived part that specifically binds to a target antigen, and as second part a virus-derived peptide linked to a MHC class I protein complex. If the multi-function protein as reported herein comprises one or more further antigen presenting domain(s) these further antigen presenting domains do not comprise an MHC molecule. I.e. the multi-function protein as reported herein comprises exactly one antigen presenting domain comprising an MHC molecule. 
     The term “MHC molecule” denotes a fusion polypeptide comprising the extracellular domains α1, α2, and α3 of a class I MHC molecule. In one embodiment the extracellular domains α1, α2, and α3 are of a human class I MHC molecule. 
     With the multi-function protein as reported herein existing virus-specific circulating cytotoxic T-cells (T-memory-cells and/or T-effector-cells) of an individual can be directed to cells expressing the target antigen, to which the antibody derived part of the multi-function protein specifically binds to, by dressing these cells with MHC class I multi-function complexes mimicking an acute viral infection. 
     In one aspect, the invention is based, in part, on the finding that a multi-function protein as reported herein, which comprises as first part a virus-derived peptide linked to a MHC class I protein and as second part an antibody derived disulfide-linked molecule, can be used to direct existing virus-specific cytotoxic T-cells of an individual to cells expressing a target antigen mimicking an acute viral infection and thereby removal of the cells expressing the target antigen can be initiated. 
     In certain embodiments a multi-function protein comprising an antigen presenting domain comprising (i) a virus-derived peptide, (ii) the soluble HLA-A allele A*0201, and (iii) beta-2-microglobulin, is provided. 
     Multi-function proteins as reported herein are useful, e.g., for the diagnosis or treatment of various diseases like cancer or viral infections. 
     In one aspect, the invention provides a multi-functions protein that binds (i) to a cell surface antigen and (ii) to cytotoxic T-cells. 
     The multi-function proteins as reported herein exploit a naturally occurring, highly effective anti-viral immune response to remove/disintegrate target cells, e.g. tumor cells or virus infected cells. The cell removal is achieved by using an individual&#39;s own very powerful circulating T-cells that do not need any co-stimulation for their activation. Additionally a small number of therapeutic molecules are needed on the cell surface for mechanism of action (see e.g. Mottez, E., et al., J. Exp. Med. 181 (1995) 493-502). 
     During the treatment the multi-function protein can trigger the anti-viral immune response of the individual similar to an immunization. Thereby multiple treatments/applications can enhance the efficacy of the treatment. Thus, an immunization as pretreatment can be used in order to enhance efficacy. 
     Also an allotype can be used whose frequency within the population is very low, as in one embodiment below 1%. The use of such an allotype may make an immunization step obsolete as the allotype will be recognized by the individual&#39;s immune system as foreign and an immune response will be initiated. 
     The targeting antigen binding site needs to be highly cell or antigen specific to limit toxicity and side effects. 
     Thus by using a multi-function protein as reported herein
         (i) only a highly specific T-cell population is activated (CD8 positive effector/memory cells specific for a single virus-derived peptide displayed in the MHC-I protein complex of the multi-function protein), all other CD3 + -cells are not affected (CD4 + -T-cells: TH1, TH2, TH17, regulatory T-cells);   (ii) the natural response of the individual&#39;s immune system is mimicked (normal removal of virus-infected cells); and   (iii) the response to the application/treatment of/with the multi-function protein will be low at the beginning but can boost during treatment (specific T-cells will be activated and expand in number), therewith initially infusion reactions and initial cytokine release can be reduced.       

     In one embodiment the method comprises the step of stimulating CD8-positive cytotoxic T-cell by application of a selected virus-derived peptide, e.g. a human cytomegalovirus (huCMV) derived peptide. In one embodiment the peptide has the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 01. 
     It has been shown that the activated CMV-peptide specific T-cells mediate effective tumor cell removal in vitro (tumor cells loaded with the CMV-derived peptide in vitro). 
     Virus-infected cells present a complex of virus-derived peptides with MHC class I proteins on their cell surface. These are recognized by specific CD8 + T-cells which remove/deplete the virus-derived peptide presenting cells. Cytolytic (cytotoxic) CD8 + -T-cells (CTL) recognize peptides in MHC class I proteins by their specific T-cell-receptor. The CTLs trigger removal of virus infected cells without the requirement of a co-stimulating signal. 
     Effector cells, e.g. peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) or FACS-sorted CD8 + -T-cells, which can be pre-stimulated with the CMV-derived peptide as comprised in the fusion polypeptide as reported herein can be used. 
     The HLA-allotype of an individual to be treated has to be recognized. 
     According to NCBI the HLA-allotypes with a frequency of 10% or more are distributed as it is shown in the following table.

     The term “frequency” denotes the frequency with which a specific HLA-allotype occurs within the entire human population. Thus, the term “with a relative frequency of 1% or more” denotes that the respective HLA-allotype has an occurrence within the entire human population of 1% or more. In one embodiment of all aspects the relative frequency is the relative frequency in the human population. In one embodiment the relative frequency is the relative frequency in the European population. In one embodiment the relative frequency is the relative frequency in the North-American population. 
     Thus, one aspect as reported herein is an antigen binding multi-function protein, characterized in that it comprises
         one antigen presenting domain,   one antibody Fc-region, and   at least one antigen binding site,   wherein the antigen presenting domain comprises in N- to C-terminal direction

     From  FIG. 10  it can be seen that the multi-function protein as reported herein maintains the binding properties of the antibody to which it is fused ( FIGS 10 b   ) and  c )). 
     In  FIGS. 11 and 13  the in vitro efficacy and specificity of a multi-function protein as reported herein is shown. 
     The cytotoxicity assay was performed in the presence of CMV-specific CD8 +  T-cells. It can be seen that a multi-function protein comprising a CMV-derived virus peptide induce the lysis/removal/disintegration of the target cells (see  FIG. 11 a   ) for monovalent antibody,  FIG. 11 b   ) for bivalent antibody). It can further be seen that the lysis of the target cells is highly specific as the incubation with the multi-function protein comprising an EBV-derived viral peptide ( FIG. 11 b   )) and control antibodies ( FIG. 11 d   ) and  e )) do not result in extensive cell lysis (the spontaneous lysis is about 3.5%). 
     In  FIG. 13  the lysis of IGF-1R positive lung adenocarcinoma cell line H460M2 is shown. 
     The EC 50  value for a multi-function protein comprising a CMV-derived peptide and a bivalent antibody is about 10 ng/ml corresponding to about 50 pM. The determined EC 50  value is independent from the target cell to effector cell ratio (see  FIG. 12 ; target cell to effector cell ratio from 1:3 to 1:1 corresponding to an effective ratio of 1:0.44 to 1:0.14 (76% of effector cells are CD8 positive and 19% are CMV specific)). 
     1. Affinity 
     In certain embodiments, a multi-function protein as provided herein comprises an antigen binding site derived from an antibody, e.g. a pair of antibody variable domains or a single domain antibody. In certain embodiments the antigen binding site has a dissociation constant (Kd) of ≤10 nM, ≤1 nM, ≤0.1 nM, ≤0.01 nM, or ≤0.001 nM (e.g. 10 −8  M or less, e.g. from 10 −8  M to 10 −13  M, e.g., from 10 −9  M to 10 −13  M) with respect to its antigen. 
     In one embodiment, Kd is measured using surface plasmon resonance assays. 
     For example this can be done by using a BIACORE®-2000 or a BIACORE®-3000 instrument (BIAcore, Inc., Piscataway, N.J.) at 25° C. with immobilized antigen CMS chips at ˜10 response units (RU). Briefly, carboxymethylated dextran biosensor chips (CMS, BIAcore, Inc.) are activated with N-ethyl-N′-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-carbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC) and N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) according to the supplier&#39;s instructions. Antigen is diluted with 10 mM sodium acetate, pH 4.8, to 5 μg/ml (˜0.2 μM) before injection at a flow rate of 5 μl/minute to achieve approximately 10 response units (RU) of coupled protein. Following the injection of antigen, 1 M ethanolamine is injected to block unreacted groups. For kinetics measurements, two-fold serial dilutions of Fab (0.78 nM to 500 nM) are injected in PBS with 0.05% polysorbate 20 (TWEEN-20™) surfactant (PBST) at 25° C. at a flow rate of approximately 25 μl/min. Association rates (kon) and dissociation rates (koff) are calculated using a simple one-to-one Langmuir binding model (BIACORE® Evaluation Software version 3.2) by simultaneously fitting the association and dissociation sensorgrams. The equilibrium dissociation constant (Kd) is calculated as the ratio koff/kon. See, e.g., Chen, Y., et al., J. Mol. Biol. 293 (1999) 865-881. 
     2. Expression 
     Expression of specific formats of the multi-function protein as reported herein (different linker, different combinations of HLA and β2-microglobulin) in HEK 293 and CHO cells led to an accumulation of the multi-function protein, if detectable at all, within the endoplasmatic reticulum, i.e. isolation and secretion of the multi-function protein was strongly impaired. 
     No secretion of a multi-function protein to the cultivation medium could be detected when the multi-function protein was intended to comprise one of the polypeptides as outlined in the following tables.

     It has been found that the expression, and especially the secretion, of multi-function proteins comprising two antigen presenting domains formed of a virus-derived peptide linked to a MHC class I protein complex, and at least one variable domain and one constant domain of an antibody is not possible in eukaryotic cells. 
     Further it has been found that the expression, and especially the secretion, of multi-function proteins comprising two antigen presenting domains formed of a virus-derived peptide linked to a MHC class I protein multi-function protein, at least one variable domain, and an antibody hinge region is not possible in eukaryotic cells. 
     Thus, in a multi-function protein as reported herein an antigen presenting domain comprising a virus-derived peptide linked to a MHC class I protein cannot be present more than once and at least one antibody variable domain and one antibody constant domain has to be present in order to allow for the production and the secretion of the multi-function protein using eukaryotic cells. 
     Thus, a multi-function protein comprising exactly one antigen presenting domain of a virus-derived peptide linked to a MHC class I protein, an antibody heavy chain hinge region, and at least one antibody variable domain and one antibody constant domain can be recombinantly produced in and secreted from eukaryotic cells. 
     Thus, a multi-function protein comprising an antibody heavy chain hinge region, at least one pair of antibody variable domains, optionally an antibody constant domain, and exactly one antigen presenting domain of a virus-derived peptide linked to a MHC class I protein can be recombinantly produced in and secreted from eukaryotic cells. 
     Various combinations were tested. Secreted expression of multi-function proteins can be accomplished by e.g. N-terminal fusion of an immunoglobulin-derived signal peptide wherein the virus-derived peptide is fused N-terminally to the class I MHC molecule. Class I MHC molecule heavy chain (α1-α2-α3 lacking the transmembrane and the cytoplasmatic domain) and light chain (B2-microglobulin) can be changed in order. The different antigen presenting domains were N-terminally fused to either an antibody light chain or an antibody heavy chain hinge region comprising polypeptide. Exemplary combinations are shown in  FIG. 2 . 
     As can be seen from the following table multi-function proteins comprising antigen presenting domains containing an MHC-I protein complex can only be expressed in the presence of variable antibody domain and antibody hinge region derived polypeptides when a single viral-derived-peptide-microglobulin-HLA-fusion polypeptide is present. 

 
     In some embodiments the multi-function protein as reported herein comprises different pairs of polypeptides. In order to allow proper pairing of the polypeptides the knobs-into-holes technology or the cross-mAb technology can be used in order to reduce the amount of not correctly associated multi-function protein. 
     The knob modification denotes the mutation T366W in the CH3 domain of an antibody (numbering according to EU index of Kabat). 
     The hole-modification denotes the mutations T366S, L368A and Y407V in the CH3 domain of an antibody (numbering according to EU index of Kabat). 
     In addition to the knob and hole modification the mutation S354C in the one CH3 domain and the mutation Y349C in the other CH3 domain can be present. 
     The cross-mAb technology is reported e.g. in WO 2009/080251, WO 2009/080252, WO 2009/080254, WO 2009/080253, WO 2010/112193, WO 2010/115589, WO 2010/136172, WO 2010/145792, and WO 2010/145793. 
     3. Variants 
     In certain embodiments, amino acid sequence variants of the multi-function protein provided herein are contemplated. For example, it may be desirable to improve the binding affinity and/or other biological properties of the multi-function protein. Amino acid sequence variants of the multi-function protein may be prepared by introducing appropriate modifications into the nucleotide sequence encoding the polypeptide chains of the multi-function protein, or by peptide synthesis. Such modifications include, for example, deletions from, and/or insertions into and/or substitutions of residues within the amino acid sequences of the polypeptides of the multi-function protein. Any combination of deletion, insertion, and substitution can be made to arrive at the final construct, provided that the final construct possesses the desired characteristics, e.g., antigen-binding. 
     a) Substitution, Insertion, and Deletion Variants 
     In certain embodiments, multi-function protein variants having one or more amino acid substitutions in one or more of the polypeptide chains are provided. Exemplary changes are provided in the following table under the heading of “exemplary substitutions”, and as further described below in reference to amino acid side chain classes. Conservative substitutions are shown in the following Table under the heading of “preferred substitutions”. Amino acid substitutions may be introduced into a multi-function protein of interest and the products screened for a desired activity, e.g., retained/improved antigen binding, decreased immunogenicity, or improved ADCC or CDC.

     Amino acids may be grouped according to common side-chain properties:
         (1) hydrophobic: Norleucine, Met, Ala, Val, Leu, Ile;   (2) neutral hydrophilic: Cys, Ser, Thr, Asn, Gln;   (3) acidic: Asp, Glu;   (4) basic: His, Lys, Arg;   (5) residues that influence chain orientation: Gly, Pro;   (6) aromatic: Trp, Tyr, Phe.       

     Non-conservative substitutions will entail exchanging a member of one of these classes for another class. 
     Amino acid sequence insertions include amino- and/or carboxyl-terminal fusions ranging in length from one residue to polypeptides containing a hundred or more residues, as well as intrasequence insertions of single or multiple amino acid residues. Examples of terminal insertions include a multi-function protein comprising a polypeptide with an N-terminal methionyl residue. Other insertional variants include the fusion to the N- or C-terminus of the polypeptide chains of the multi-function protein to an enzyme. 
     b) Glycosylation Variants 
     In certain embodiments, one or more polypeptides of the multi-function protein provided herein can be altered to increase or decrease the extent to which the polypeptide(s) is(are) glycosylated. Addition or deletion of glycosylation sites to a polypeptide may be conveniently accomplished by altering the amino acid sequence such that one or more glycosylation sites is created or removed. 
     The multi-function protein comprises an antibody Fc-region and the carbohydrate attached thereto may be altered. Native Fc-regions produced by mammalian cells typically comprise a branched, biantennary oligosaccharide that is generally attached by an N-linkage to Asn297 of the CH2 domain of the Fc-region. See, e.g., Wright, A., and Morrison, S. L., TIBTECH 15 (1997) 26-32. The oligosaccharide may include various carbohydrates, e.g., mannose, N-acetyl glucosamine (GlcNAc), galactose, and sialic acid, as well as a fucose attached to a GlcNAc in the “stem” of the biantennary oligosaccharide structure. In some embodiments, modifications of the oligosaccharide in a multi-function protein as reported herein may be made in order to create variants with certain improved properties. 
     In one embodiment, multi-function protein comprising polypeptide variants are provided having a carbohydrate structure that lacks fucose attached (directly or indirectly) to the Fc-region. For example, the amount of fucose in such Fc-region may be from 1% to 80%, from 1% to 65%, from 5% to 65% or from 20% to 40%. The amount of fucose is determined by calculating the average amount of fucose within the sugar chain at Asn297, relative to the sum of all glycostructures attached to Asn 297 (e.g. multi-function protein, hybrid and high mannose structures) as measured by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, as described in WO 2008/077546, for example. Asn297 refers to the asparagine residue located at about position 297 in the Fc-region (EU numbering of Fc-region residues); however, Asn297 may also be located about ±3 amino acids upstream or downstream of position 297, i.e., between positions 294 and 300, due to minor sequence variations in antibodies. Such fucosylation variants may have improved ADCC function. See, e.g., US 2003/0157108; US 2004/0093621. Examples of publications related to “defucosylated” or “fucose-deficient” antibody variants include: US 2003/0157108; WO 2000/61739; WO 2001/29246; US 2003/0115614; US 2002/0164328; US 2004/0093621; US 2004/0132140; US 2004/0110704; US 2004/0110282; US 2004/0109865; WO 2003/085119; WO 2003/084570; WO 2005/035586; WO 2005/035778; WO 2005/053742; WO 2002/031140; Okazaki, A., et al., J. Mol. Biol. 336 (2004) 1239-1249; Yamane-Ohnuki, N., et al., Biotech. Bioeng. 87 (2004) 614-622. Examples of cell lines capable of producing defucosylated antibodies include Lec13 CHO cells deficient in protein fucosylation (Ripka, J., et al., Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 249 (1986) 533-545; US 2003/0157108; and WO 2004/056312, especially at Example 11), and knockout cell lines, such as alpha-1,6-fucosyltransferase gene, FUT8, knockout CHO cells (see, e.g., Yamane-Ohnuki, N., et al., Biotech. Bioeng. 87 (2004) 614-622; Kanda, Y., et al., Biotechnol. Bioeng. 94 (2006) 680-688; and WO 2003/085107). 
     Multi-function proteins comprising Fc-region variants are further provided with bisected oligosaccharides, e.g., in which a biantennary oligosaccharide attached to the Fc-region is bisected by GlcNAc. Such variants may have reduced fucosylation and/or improved ADCC function. Examples of such antibody variants are described, e.g., in WO 2003/011878; U.S. Pat. No. 6,602,684; and US 2005/0123546. Fc-region variants with at least one galactose residue in the oligosaccharide attached to the Fc-region are also provided. Such Fc-region variants may have improved CDC function. Corresponding antibody variants are described, e.g., in WO 97/30087; WO 98/58964; and WO 99/22764. 
     c) Fe-Region Variants 
     In certain embodiments, one or more amino acid modifications may be introduced into the Fc-region of the multi-function protein provided herein, thereby generating an Fc-region variant. The Fc-region variant may comprise a human Fc-region sequence (e.g., a human IgG1, IgG2, IgG3 or IgG4 Fc-region) comprising an amino acid modification (e.g. a substitution) at one or more amino acid positions. 
     In certain embodiments, the invention contemplates an Fc-region variant that possesses some but not all effector functions, which make it a desirable candidate for applications in which the half-life of the multi-function protein in vivo is important yet certain effector functions (such as complement and ADCC) are unnecessary or deleterious. In vitro and/or in vivo cytotoxicity assays can be conducted to confirm the reduction/depletion of CDC and/or ADCC activities. For example, Fc receptor (FcR) binding assays can be conducted to ensure that the multi-function protein lacks FcγR binding (hence likely lacking ADCC activity), but retains FcRn binding ability. The primary cells for mediating ADCC, NK cells, express FcγRIII only, whereas monocytes express FcγR1, FcγRII and FcγRIII. FcR expression on hematopoietic cells is summarized in Table 3 on page 464 of Ravetch, J. V., and Kinet, J. P., Annu. Rev. Immunol. 9 (1991) 457-492. Non-limiting examples of in vitro assays to assess ADCC activity of a molecule of interest is described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,500,362 (see, e.g. Hellstrom, I., et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 83 (1986) 7059-7063; and Hellstrom, I., et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 82 (1985) 1499-1502); U.S. Pat. No. 5,821,337 (see Bruggemann, M., et al., J. Exp. Med. 166 (1987) 1351-1361). Alternatively, non-radioactive assays methods may be employed (see, for example, ACTI™ non-radioactive cytotoxicity assay for flow cytometry (CellTechnology, Inc. Mountain View, Calif.; and CytoTox 96® non-radioactive cytotoxicity assay (Promega, Madison, Wis.). Useful effector cells for such assays include peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and Natural Killer (NK) cells. Alternatively, or additionally, ADCC activity of the molecule of interest may be assessed in vivo, e.g., in an animal model such as that disclosed in Clynes, R., et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 95 (1998) 652-656. C1q binding assays may also be carried out to confirm that the antibody is unable to bind C1q and hence lacks CDC activity. See, e.g., C1q and C3c binding ELISA in WO 2006/029879 and WO 2005/100402. To assess complement activation, a CDC assay may be performed (see, for example, Gazzano-Santoro, H., et al., J. Immunol. Methods 202 (1996) 163-171; Cragg, M. S., et al., Blood 101 (2003) 1045-1052; and Cragg, M. S. and Glennie, M. J., Blood 103 (2004) 2738-2743). FcRn binding and in vivo clearance/half-life determinations can also be performed using methods known in the art (see, e.g., Petkova, S. B., et al., Int. Immunol. 18 (2006) 1759-1769). 
     Fc-regions with reduced effector function include those with substitution of one or more of Fc-region residues 234, 235, 238, 265, 269, 270, 297, 327 and 329 (see e.g. U.S. Pat. No. 6,737,056). Such Fc-region mutants include Fc-region mutants with substitutions at two or more of amino acid positions 265, 269, 270, 297 and 327, including the so-called “DANA” Fc-region mutant with substitution of residues 265 and 297 to alanine (U.S. Pat. No. 7,332,581). 
     Certain Fc-region variants with improved or diminished binding to FcRs are described. (See, e.g., U.S. Pat. No. 6,737,056; WO 2004/056312, and Shields, R. L., et al., J. Biol. Chem. 276 (2001) 6591-6604). 
     In certain embodiments, a multi-function protein variant comprises an Fc-region with one or more amino acid substitutions which improve ADCC, e.g., substitutions at positions 298, 333, and/or 334 of the Fc-region (EU numbering of residues). 
     In some embodiments, alterations are made in the Fc-region that result in altered (i.e., either improved or diminished) C1q binding and/or Complement Dependent Cytotoxicity (CDC), e.g., as described in U.S. Pat. No. 6,194,551, WO 99/51642, and Idusogie, E. E., et al., J. Immunol. 164 (2000) 4178-4184. 
     Antibodies with increased half-lives and improved binding to the neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn), which is responsible for the transfer of maternal IgGs to the fetus (Guyer, R. L., et al., J. Immunol. 117 (1976) 587-593, and Kim, J. K., et al., J. Immunol. 24 (1994) 2429-2434), are described in US 2005/0014934. Those antibodies comprise an Fc-region with one or more substitutions therein which improve binding of the Fc-region to FcRn. Such Fc-region variants include those with substitutions at one or more of Fc-region residues: 238, 256, 265, 272, 286, 303, 305, 307, 311, 312, 317, 340, 356, 360, 362, 376, 378, 380, 382, 413, 424 or 434, e.g., substitution of Fc-region residue 434 (U.S. Pat.

     B. Recombinant Methods and Compositions 
     Multi-function proteins as reported herein may be produced using recombinant methods and compositions, e.g., as described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,816,567. In one embodiment, isolated nucleic acids encoding the polypeptides of the multi-function protein described herein are provided. In a further embodiment, one or more vectors (e.g., expression vectors) comprising such nucleic acid are provided. In a further embodiment, a host cell comprising such nucleic acid is provided. In one such embodiment, a host cell comprises (e.g., has been transformed with): (1) a vector comprising a nucleic acid that encodes an amino acid sequence comprising the VL of the antibody and an amino acid sequence comprising the VH of the antibody, or (2) a first vector comprising a nucleic acid that encodes an amino acid sequence comprising the VL of the antibody and a second vector comprising a nucleic acid that encodes an amino acid sequence comprising the VH of the antibody. In one embodiment, the host cell is eukaryotic, e.g. a Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cell or lymphoid cell (e.g., Y0, NS0, Sp2/0 cell). In one embodiment, a method of making a multi-function protein as reported herein is provided, wherein the method comprises culturing a host cell comprising a nucleic acid encoding the polypeptides of the multi-function protein, as provided above, under conditions suitable for expression of the polypeptides and formation of the multi-function protein, and optionally recovering the multi-function protein from the host cell (or host cell culture medium). 
     For recombinant production of a multi-function protein, nucleic acid encoding the polypeptides of the multi-function protein, e.g., as described above, are isolated and inserted into one or more vectors for further cloning and/or expression in a host cell. Such nucleic acid may be readily isolated and sequenced using conventional procedures (e.g., by using oligonucleotide probes that are capable of binding specifically to genes encoding the heavy and light chains of the antibody). 
     Suitable host cells for cloning or expression vectors include prokaryotic or eukaryotic cells described herein. For example, multi-function proteins may be produced in bacteria, in particular when glycosylation and Fc effector function are not needed. For expression of antibody fragments and polypeptides in bacteria, see, e.g., U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,648,237, 5,789,199, and 5,840,523. (See also Charlton, K. A., In: Methods in Molecular Biology, Vol. 248, Lo, B. K. C. (ed.), Humana Press, Totowa, N.J. (2003), pp. 245-254, describing expression of antibody fragments in  E. coli .) After expression, the multi-function protein may be isolated from the bacterial cell paste in a soluble fraction and can be further purified. 
     In addition to prokaryotes, eukaryotic microbes such as filamentous fungi or yeast are suitable cloning or expression hosts for polypeptide-encoding vectors, including fungi and yeast strains whose glycosylation pathways have been “humanized”, resulting in the production of an antibody with a partially or fully human glycosylation pattern. See Gerngross, T. U., Nat. Biotech. 22 (2004) 1409-1414; and Li, H., et al., Nat. Biotech. 24 (2006) 210-215. 
     Suitable host cells for the expression of glycosylated multi-function proteins are also derived from multicellular organisms (invertebrates and vertebrates). Examples of invertebrate cells include plant and insect cells. Numerous baculoviral strains have been identified which may be used in conjunction with insect cells, particularly for transfection of Spodoptera frugiperda cells. 
     Plant cell cultures can also be utilized as hosts. See, e.g., U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,959,177, 6,040,498, 6,420,548, 7,125,978, and 6,417,429 (describing PLANTIBODIES™ technology for producing antibodies in transgenic plants). 
     Vertebrate cells may also be used as hosts. For example, mammalian cell lines that are adapted to grow in suspension may be useful. Other examples of useful mammalian host cell lines are monkey kidney CV1 line transformed by SV40 (COS-7); human embryonic kidney line (HEK 293 or 293 cells as described, e.g., in Graham, F. L., et al., J. Gen Virol. 36 (1977) 59-74); baby hamster kidney cells (BHK); mouse sertoli cells (TM4 cells as described, e.g., in Mather, J. P., Biol. Reprod. 23 (1980) 243-252); monkey kidney cells (CV1); African green monkey kidney cells (VERO-76); human cervical carcinoma cells (HELA); canine kidney cells (MDCK; buffalo rat liver cells (BRL 3A); human lung cells (W138); human liver cells (Hep G2); mouse mammary tumor (MMT 060562); TRI cells, as described, e.g., in Mather, J. P., et al., Annals N.Y. Acad. Sci. 383 (1982) 44-68; MRC 5 cells; and FS4 cells. Other useful mammalian host cell lines include Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, including DHFR −  CHO cells (Urlaub, G., et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 77 (1980) 4216-4220); and myeloma cell lines such as Y0, NS0 and Sp2/0. For a review of certain mammalian host cell lines suitable for antibody production, see, e.g., Yazaki, P. and Wu, A. M., Methods in Molecular Biology, Vol. 248, Lo, B. K. C. (ed.), Humana Press, Totowa, N.J. (2004), pp. 255-268.

In another embodiment, a pharmaceutical formulation comprises any of the multi-function proteins as reported herein and at least one additional therapeutic agent. 
     Multi-function proteins of the invention can be used either alone or in combination with other agents in a therapy. For instance, a multi-function protein of the invention may be co-administered with at least one additional therapeutic agent. 
     Such combination therapies noted above encompass combined administration (where two or more therapeutic agents are included in the same or separate formulations), and separate administration, in which case, administration of the multi-function protein of the invention can occur prior to, simultaneously, and/or following, administration of the additional therapeutic agent and/or adjuvant. Multi-function proteins of the invention can also be used in combination with radiation therapy. 
     A multi-function protein of the invention (and any additional therapeutic agent) can be administered by any suitable means, including parenteral, intrapulmonary, and intranasal, and, if desired for local treatment, intralesional administration. Parenteral infusions include intramuscular, intravenous, intraarterial, intraperitoneal, or subcutaneous administration. Dosing can be by any suitable route, e.g. by injections, such as intravenous or subcutaneous injections, depending in part on whether the administration is brief or chronic. Various dosing schedules including but not limited to single or multiple administrations over various time-points, bolus administration, and pulse infusion are contemplated herein. 
     Multi-function proteins of the invention would be formulated, dosed, and administered in a fashion consistent with good medical practice. Factors for consideration in this context include the particular disorder being treated, the particular mammal being treated, the clinical condition of the individual patient, the cause of the disorder, the site of delivery of the agent, the method of administration, the scheduling of administration, and other factors known to medical practitioners. The multi-function protein need not be, but is optionally formulated with one or more agents currently used to prevent or treat the disorder in question. The effective amount of such other agents depends on the amount of multi-function protein present in the formulation, the type of disorder or treatment, and other factors discussed above. These are generally used in the same dosages and with administration routes as described herein, or about from 1 to 99% of the dosages described herein, or in any dosage and by any route that is empirically/clinically determined to be appropriate. 
     For the prevention or treatment of disease, the appropriate dosage of a multi-function protein of the invention (when used alone or in combination with one or more other additional therapeutic agents) will depend on the type of disease to be treated, the type of multi-function protein, the severity and course of the disease, whether the multi-function protein is administered for preventive or therapeutic purposes, previous therapy, the patient&#39;s clinical history and response to the multi-function protein, and the discretion of the attending physician. The multi-function protein is suitably administered to the patient at one time or over a series of treatments. Depending on the type and severity of the disease, about 1 μg/kg to 15 mg/kg (e.g. 0.5 mg/kg-10 mg/kg) of multi-function protein can be an initial candidate dosage for administration to the patient, whether, for example, by one or more separate administrations, or by continuous infusion. One typical daily dosage might range from about 1 μg/kg to 100 mg/kg or more, depending on the factors mentioned above. For repeated administrations over several days or longer, depending on the condition, the treatment would generally be sustained until a desired suppression of disease symptoms occurs. One exemplary dosage of the antibody would be in the range from about 0.05 mg/kg to about 10 mg/kg. Thus, one or more doses of about 0.5 mg/kg, 2.0 mg/kg, 4.0 mg/kg or 10 mg/kg (or any combination thereof) may be administered to the patient. Such doses may be administered intermittently, e.g. every week or every three weeks (e.g. such that the patient receives from about two to about twenty, or e.g. about six doses of the antibody). An initial higher loading dose, followed by one or more lower doses may be administered. However, other dosage regimens may be useful. The progress of this therapy is easily monitored by conventional techniques and assays. 
     It is understood that any of the above formulations or therapeutic methods may be carried out using an immunoconjugate of the invention in place of or in addition to a multi-function protein as reported herein. 
     One aspect as reported herein is the multi-function protein as reported herein for use in a method of treating a cancer in a patient, wherein the multi-function protein is to be administered before, simultaneously or after the immunization of the patient with the virus-derived peptide comprised in the multi-function protein. 
     One aspect as reported herein is the use of a multi-function protein as reported herein for the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment of cancer in combination with immunization against the virus-derived peptide comprised in the multi-function protein. 
     In the first step the virus-derived peptide as contained in the multi-function protein is administered first to the individual to be treated. At a certain time span later, i.e. between 4 days and 28 days, the multi-function protein as reported herein is administered to the individual. 
     By this successive and separated application of the virus-derived polypeptide, in the first step alone and in the second step in the multi-function protein as reported herein, it is possible to increase the number of virus-derived peptide specific T-cell and, thus, to increase the efficacy of the treatment.

     Although the foregoing invention has been described in some detail by way of illustration and example for purposes of clarity of understanding, the descriptions and examples should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention. The disclosures of all patent and scientific literature cited herein are expressly incorporated in their entirety by reference. 
     V. EXAMPLES 
     The following are examples of methods and compositions of the invention. It is understood that various other embodiments may be practiced, given the general description provided above. 
     Example 1 
     Procedure for Isolation and Stimulation of CMV-Specific CD8 Positive T-Cells from Human Donors 
     Isolation of PBLs 
     PBL were isolated by Ficoll gradient centrifugation from human donor blood (Greiner bio-one, Cat. No. 227290). PBLs were cultured in RPMI supplemented with 5% human serum (Sigma Cat. No. H2520), 2 mM L-glutamine (PAN Biotech, Cat. No. P04-80100), 100 μg/ml Penicillin/Streptomycin (Roche, Cat. No. 14001100). 
     Stimulation of PBLs 
     Cells (2×10 7  cells/ml) were cultured in cell culture medium supplemented with 50 μg/ml CMV pp65-derived peptide (SEQ ID NO: 01) for two hours under cell culture conditions (37° C., 5% CO 2 , 80% humidity). Thereafter the cell suspension was 20-fold diluted with culture medium and further cultured in flat-bottom 96-well plates at a seeding density of 2×10 5  cells per 96 well. After 4 to 5 days, 20 U/ml IL-2 (Roche, Cat. No. 11011456001), 25 ng/ml IL-7 (Peprotech, Cat. No. 200-01) and 25 ng/ml IL-15 (Peprotech, Cat. No. 200-15) were added and the cells were cultured for another 7 to 8 days. Stimulation of T-cells is visible under the microscope as cell clusters. 
     Re-Stimulation of PBLs 
     T-cells were co-cultured with stimulator cells, which are peptide-pulsed autologous primary PBLs of the same donor (either freshly prepared or derived from frozen stocks). The stimulator cells were pulsed with the peptide as described above. After the two hours of peptide incubation the PBLs were irradiated (4000 rad; STS GmbH OB29 Nr.9510-5) and washed twice in culture medium without peptide. The re-stimulation was carried out in 96 well plates round bottom plates. 8×10 4  to 1×10 5  stimulator cells were used per 96 well. Cells from the primary culture were washed twice with culture medium, resuspended in 200 μl culture medium and 80 μl were transferred to each well of the stimulator cells. After 3 days 20 U/ml IL-2, 25 ng/ml IL-7 and 25 ng/ml IL-15 were added. Cells did proliferate and were expanded every 2 to 3 days in new wells with fresh medium. 
     Analysis of T-Cells 
     Cells were stained for CD8 expression (BD, Cat. No. 345772) and CMV-specific T-cell receptors (ProImmune, Cat. No. F008-4A-E) and analyzed in FACS. 
     Cell Culture Medium 
     RPMI1640 (PAN Biotech, Cat. No. P04-17500), 5% Human Serum (HS; Sigma Cat. No. H2520), 2 mM L-glutamine (PAN Biotech, Cat. No. P04-80100), 100 μg/ml Penicillin/Streptomycin (Roche, Cat. No. 14001100). 
     Results 
     FACS analysis of four human donor derived peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs) was performed. The cells were labeled with a FITC-conjugated anti-CD8 antibody (BD, Cat. No. 345772) combined with APC-conjugated ProS pentamer (ProImmune, Cat. No. F008-4A-E) to stain T-cells which carry a T-cell receptor (TCR) recognizing MHC-class I (HLA-A*0201) loaded with CMV-derived peptide (NLVPMVATV (SEQ ID NO: 01)). For results see  FIGS. 4A-B . At day 0 donor 1 and 4 carry low numbers of CMV-specific CD8 T-cells (0.08% and 0.1%, respectively). Donor 2 and 3 carry a higher number of CMV-specific CD8 T cells in their peripheral blood (0.25% and 3.12%, respectively). Fourteen days later after stimulation with CMV-derived peptide pulsed autologous cells only donors 2 and 3 show a significant increase in CMV-specific CD8 T cells (6.2% and 71.2%, respectively) whereas donors 1 and 4 do not show increased numbers of CMV-specific CD8 T cells (0.01% and 0.05%, respectively). Another 14 days later after a second stimulation with CMV-derived peptide pulsed autologous cells donors 2 and 3 show a further increase in CMV-specific CD8 T cells (15.1% and 96.6%, respectively). 
     Example 2 
     Cytotoxicity Assay 
     Acute lymphoblastic leukemia cells MN60 carry the A*0201 HLA-A allele. MN60 cells (1×10 6  cells/ml) were incubated with 50 μg/ml CMV pp65 peptide (SEQ ID NO: 01) for 45 minutes under cell culture conditions (37° C., 5% CO 2 , 80% humidity). The incubation results in a peptide exchange in the HLA-A*0201 peptide binding groove. The peptide exchanged MN60 cells were centrifuged and diluted to a density of 1×10 6  cells/ml with PBS (PanBiotech, Cat. No. P04-36500) and stained with 1 μM of the cell tracer carboxyfluorescein succinimidyl ester (CFSE, Invitrogen, Cat. No. 34554) 15 minutes at room temperature (RT). Cells were washed thereafter once with PBS and diluted to 1×10 5  cells/ml with AIM-V media (Gibco, Cat. No. 0870112DK). For the assay MN60 cells (target cells) were co-cultured in 96-well round bottom plates with CMV-specific human donor 3 derived CD8 +  T-cells (effector cells, see example 1) for four hours under cell culture conditions. The effector to target cell ratio of was 4:1. Dead cells are stained with 1 μl/100 μl propidium iodide (PI, Sigma, Cat. No. P-4864) and were FACS analyzed. 
     Results 
     Flow Cytometric Analysis was performed to analyze the cytolytic capability of stimulated CTLs through lysis of MN60 tumor cells loaded with CMV peptide: 
     A co-culture of MN60 cells not loaded with the CMV-derived peptide was performed. MN60 cells are FITC-positive. Effector cells are FITC-negative. Dead cells are PI positive, alive cells are PI-negative. More than 85% of the MN60 cells are alive when they are not loaded with the CMV-derived peptide (Q2 and Q4). 
     A co-culture of MN60 cells loaded with the CMV-derived peptide was performed. More than 80% of the MN60 cells are dead (Q2 and Q4) whereas the ratio of alive and dead effector cells is not remarkably altered between the FACS analysis indicating a specific lysis of CMV-peptide-loaded target cells. 
     Flow Cytometric Analysis to analyze the cytolytic capability of stimulated CTLs through lysis of MN60 tumor cells loaded with CMV peptide depending on the effector to target cell ratio: 
     The cytotoxic assay was performed as described above. Different effector cell to target cell ratios were applied ranging from 0.5 effector cells per target cell to four effector cells per target cell. Incubation time was four hours. MN60 cells which were not loaded with the CMV-derived peptide do not show an increased number of dead cells with an increased effector to target ratio, i.e. ranging from 8% to 13% with ratio 0.5:1 to 4:1. 
     Almost 20% of the MN60 cells loaded with CMV-derived peptide are already killed with a low effector to target ratio of 0.5:1 within four hours. The number of dead cells increases steeply with an increase in effector to target ratio reaching up to 83% at a ratio of 4:1 effector cells per target cell.

     Transfection 
     HEK 293 cells were diluted to 8 x 10 5  cells/ml the day before transfection. About 1 to 1.6×10 6  cells/ml were transfected according to the manufacturer&#39;s protocol. For a final transfection volume of 30 ml, 30 μg DNA were diluted to a final volume of 1 ml with Opti-MEM® I Reduced Serum Medium (Gibco, Cat. No. 31985070). 2 μl of 293fectin™ Reagent (Invitrogen, Cat. No. 12347019) per 1 μg DNA were equally diluted to a final volume of 1 ml with Opti-MEM® medium and incubated for 5 minutes. After incubation the diluted DNA was added to the diluted 293fectin™ Reagent, gently mixed, incubated for another 20-30 minutes and afterwards drop wise pipetted to 28 ml of the HEK 293 cells to obtain a final volume of 30 ml. The cells were incubated under cell culture condition (37° C., 8% CO 2 , 80% humidity) on an orbital shaker rotating at 125 rpm and harvested after 72 hours. The harvest was centrifuged for 10 minutes at 1000 rpm, for 10 minutes at 3000 rpm and filtered through a 22 μm sterile filter (Millipore, Cat. No. SCGPU05RE). 
     Western Blotting 
     500 μl of cell culture supernatant was concentrated with Pall Nanosep Omega-Membrane 30KD Centrifugal Devices (Pall, Cat. No. OD030C33) to a volume of 17.5 μl of each concentrate was diluted to a final volume of 25 μl with 4× XT Sample Buffer (Bio Rad, Cat. No. 161-0791) and 20× XT Reducing Agent (BioRad, Cat. No. 161-0792), heated for 8 minutes at 96° C. and applied on a 4-12% Criterion XT Precast Gel (Cat. No. 345-0124). Blotting was performed with Trans-Blot SD semi-dry Transfer Cell (BioRad) at 20 V for 30 minutes on a Trans-blot Pure Nitrocellulose membrane (0.45 μm) (BioRad, Cat. No. 162-0117). Blocking of the membrane was performed with 1× Western Blocking Reagent (Roche, Cat. No. 11921681001) for one hour at room temperature. Staining was performed with peroxidase conjugated polyclonal rabbit anti-human κ-light chain (DAKO, Cat. No. P0129, diluted 1:3000) and polyclonal rabbit anti-human IgG antibody HRP conjugate (DAKO, Cat. No. P0214, diluted 1:5000) for one hour at room temperature. Luminescence detection was carried out with LUMI-Imager F1 (Roche). 
     Purification 
     Cells were removed from culture medium by centrifugation. Multi-function proteins were purified from supernatants by protein A affinity chromatography (MabSelect-Sepharose on an AKTA-Avant). Eluted multi-function proteins were concentrated with Amicon centrifugation tubes to a protein concentration of 3 mg/ml. An aliquot was analyzed on a size exclusion chromatography (HPLC TSKgel GFC300 Sys89). Preparative SEC on a Superdex 200 was performed to remove aggregates and buffer the fusion proteins in 20 mM histidine, 140 mM NaCl, pH 6.0. Eluted multi-function proteins were concentrated with Amicon centrifugation tube to a protein concentration of 1 mg/ml and sterile filtered (0.2 μm pore size). 
     Analytics 
     Multi-function protein samples were analyzed by OD280 using a UV spectrophotometer to determine the protein concentration in solution. The extinction coefficient required for this was calculated from the amino acid sequence according to Pace, C. N., et al., Protein Science 4 (1995) 2411-2423). Size-exclusion chromatography (SE-HPLC) was performed on TSK-Ge1300SWXL or Superdex 200 columns with a 0.2 M potassium phosphate buffer, comprising 0.25 M KCl, pH 7.0 as mobile phase in order to determine the content of monomeric, aggregated and degraded species in the samples. Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (reducing and non-reducing) was performed to analyze the purity of the multi-function protein preparations with regard to product-related degradation products and unrelated impurities. Electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) was performed with reduced (TCEP) and deglycosylated (N-glycosidase F) samples to confirm the correct mass/identity of each chain and detect chemical modifications. ESI-MS of the deglycosylated samples was carried out to analyze the nature and quality of the fully assembled protein and detect potential product-related side products. 
     Method SDS-PAGE and Coomassie Staining
         Device: Invitrogen XCell Sure Lock Mini-Cell   Gel: 4-20% Tris-Glycine Gel, Invitrogen EC6025BOX   Buffer: Tris-Glycine SDS Running Buffer (10×), Invitrogen LC2675-5   Sample buffer: Tris-Glycine SDS Sample Buffer (2×), Invitrogen LC2676   Reducing buffer: NuPAGE Sample Reducing Agent (10×), Invitrogen NP0004   Molecular Weight Marker: Mark 12, MW Standard, Invitrogen LC5677       

     Protein Sample Preparation 
     The sample was adjusted to a protein concentration of 1 mg/ml with buffer. For sample reduction the following procedure was carried out:
         reduction buffer: 4 ml Sample buffer (2×) and 1 ml reducing buffer (10×),   dilute sample 1:1 with reduction buffer,   incubate for 5 minutes at 70° C.       

     The gel electrophoresis was carried out at 125 V for 90 minutes. The gels were stained with Simply Blue Safe Stain (Invitrogen, Cat. No. LC6065). 
     Results 

 
     The SDS gel with Coomassie staining and the corresponding SEC chromatograms of selected multi-function proteins with a structure corresponding to number 1, 2A and 3A according to the previous table are shown in  FIGS. 5A, 5B  and  FIGS. 6A-1, 6A-2, 6B-1 and 6B-2 . It can be seen that defined multi-function proteins can be obtained. 
     Example 4 
     Binding of MHC-I-anti-IGF-1R Multi-Function Protein to Human IGF-1R Positive Cell Line 
     H460M2 cells were diluted to 8×10 5  cells/ml in AIM-V medium (Gibco, Cat. No. 0870112DK). 500 μl of the cell suspension was stained with 10 μg of a MHC-I-anti-IGF-1R multi-function protein as reported herein either at 4° C. or 37° C. for one hour. Thereafter cells were washed once with ice-cold AIM-V medium and stained with a second antibody, which was a goat F(ab′) 2  anti-human IgG (H+L) antibody conjugated to R-PE (Dianova, Cat. No. 109-116-088, dilution 1:50) for 30 minutes at 4° C. Thereafter cells were washed once with ice-cold AIM-V medium and fluorescence was measured via FACS Canto II (BD Bioscience) with gating on living cells. A bispecific antibody served as Isotype control, an anti IGF-1R antibody (see e.g. WO 2004/087756 and WO 2007/115814) served as positive control. 
     Results 
     Considering the shift in the PE-fluorescence measurement (X-axis), the MHC-I-anti-IGF-1R multi-function protein shows no visible difference in binding to H460M2 target cells in comparison to the control antibody. There is also no difference whether the incubation with the MHC-I-anti-IGF-1R multi-function protein is accomplished at 4° C. or 37° C. Neither the incubation with the isotype control nor with the fluorescence labeled secondary antibody alone shows any shift in the PE fluorescence measurement. Despite the fusion of the class I MHC molecule the antibody variable domain of the MHC-I-anti-IGF-1R multi-function protein herein still binds to the H460M2 target cells.

     In Vitro Removal of Antigen Expressing Cells 
     124 target cells (1×10 5  cells/ml) were seeded in cell culture media (RPMI 1640 supplemented with 2 mM L-glutamine, 1 mM sodium pyruvate, 0.1 mM NEAA, and 10% (v/w) FCS) on WillCo Glass Bottom Dishes (FA. WillCo Wells BV, REF GWST-3522) for 24 to 48 hours. WillCo Glass Bottom Dishes were pre-coated with 50 μg/ml poly-L-lysine hydrochloride (Sigma Aldrich, Cat #P2658) per dish for 30 min. After coating the dishes were thoroughly rinsed with sterile tissue culture grade water and dried for two hours. 
     After the cultivation cell culture media was removed and the IGF-1R binding multi-function protein comprising one [CMV-pp65-peptide]-[linker 1]-[β2-microglobulin]-[linker 2]-[HLA-A-α1-α2-α3]-[linker 3]-[IgG1-L234A, L235A mutant with hole variation] fusion polypeptide, one IgG1-L234A, L235A mutant Fc-region knob variant disulfide-linked polypeptide and one Ig light chain, wherein the multi-function protein specifically binds to human IGF-1R as reported herein (see e.g. Example 3) was added in a final concentration of 5 pg/m1 in 3 mM Krebs Ringer HEPES Buffer pH 7.3 (supplemented with 0.5 mM DL-dithiothreitol, 1 mM ascorbic acid, and 4 mM glutathione). 
     T-cells were added in a target cell to effector cell ration of 1:10. Imaging was performed for 4 hours with a Zeiss Axiovert 135 microscope. 
     Results 
     The IGF-1R binding multi-function protein mediated lysis of human IGF-1R expressing 124 3T3 cells (large adherently growing cells). Lysis is mediated by human CMV-specific T-cells (small cells either round shaped or amoeboid migrating cells). 124 cells are incubated with the multi-function protein at a concentration of 5 μg/ml and human CMV-specific T-cells (pre-activated with HLA-A0201 + /CMV peptide pulsed APCs). Note the interaction of the 124 cells with the T-cells at 56 min and 76 min and subsequently the collapse of the 124 cell after 125 min. 
     A control showing the absence of lysis of 124 3T3 cells (large adherently growing cells, white arrowhead) through human CMV-specific T-cells (small cells either round shaped or amoeboid migrating cells) in the absence of an antigen binding multi-function protein as reported herein was performed. 124 cells are incubated with specific cytotoxic T-cells (pre-activated with HLA-A0201 + /CMV peptide pulsed APCs). Time lapse is indicated below the respective picture.

     Cytotoxicity Assay 
     Cell culture medium (50 μl) was pipetted into each well of an Xcelligence 96well E-plate (Roche, Cat #05232368001) to perform background measurement. 
     124 cells were diluted to 1×10 6  cells/ml in cell culture media (RPMI 1640, 2 mM L-glutamine, 1 mM Sodium pyruvate, 0.1 mM NEAA, 10% (v/w) FCS) and 50 μl (2×10 4  cells/well) were pipetted in each well of an Xcelligence 96well plate to a final volume of 100 μl and cultivated for 24 hours (37° C., 8% CO 2 , 80% humidity). After 24 hours the medium was removed and the cells were washed with 200 μl AIM-V (Serum Free Medium (Invitrogen) T-cell medium (Cat-No): 12055-083) medium. The IGF-1R binding multi-function protein comprising one [CMV-pp65-peptide]-[linker 1]-[β2-microglobulin]-[linker 2]-[HLA-A-α1-a2-α3]-[linker 3]-[IgG1-L234A, L235A mutant with hole variation] fusion polypeptide, one IgG1-L234A, L235A mutant Fc-region knob variant disulfide-linked polypeptide and one Ig light chain, wherein the multi-function protein specifically binds to human IGF-1R, was added to the washed target cells in a final concentration of 1 μg/ml in AIM-V medium. Effector cells in the respectable ratio were added in AIM-V media to a final volume of 150 μl. Afucosylated IgG1 monoclonal antibody directed against human IGF-1R (anti-IGF-1R antibody-afucosylated) and non-binding human anti-digoxigenin antibody (anti-digoxygenin antibody) served as Isotype control and specific antibody control, respectively. Measurement was performed for 6 to 9 hours respectively with the Xcelligence System (Roche).

Effector cells in the respectable ratio of 10:1 (E:T) were added in AIM-V media to a final volume of 150 μl. Measurement was performed 42 hours post addition with the Xcelligence System (Roche). 
     The results obtained for 200.000 PBMCs (effector cells) freshly isolated from Donor 3 co-cultured with 20.000 adherent Colo38 cells (96 well plates in triplicates) are shown in  FIG. 16  (lysis of cells after 42 hours of incubation with multi-function protein). 25% of the PBMCs are CD8-positive T cells of which in turn 3% are CMV-pp65-peptide specific resulting in approx. 1.500 CMV-pp65-peptide-specific CD8+ T cells per 20.000 Colo38 target cells (real E:T (Effector to Target Cell Ratio)=1:13). 
     Results

     LDH Release Assay 
     ACEA plates were centrifuged for 7 min. at 910 rpm. 50 μl of ACEA supernatants were transferred in another 96well flat bottom plate (Costar). LDH reagent (Cytotoxicity Detection Kit, Roche, Cat. #11644793001) 1 and 2 are diluted according to the manufacturer&#39;s instructions and 50 μl of the solution were added to the supernatant. Absorption was detected after an incubation period of 5 to 25 minutes in Tecan Reader Sunrise (Tecan). Total lysis is detected through addition of 1% Triton X-100 (Sigma, Cat. #T-8787) to the target cells before centrifugation. 
     The results obtained for 200.000 PBMCs (effector cells) freshly isolated from Donor 3 co-cultured with 20.000 adherent Colo38 cells (96 well plates in triplicates) are shown in  FIG. 17  (LDH release after 48 hours of incubation with multi-function protein). 200.000 PBMCs freshly isolated from Donor 3 were co-cultured with 20.000 adherent Colo38 cells (96 well plates in triplicates). 25% of the PBMCs are CD8-positive T cells of which in turn 3% are CMV-pp65-peptide specific resulting in approx. 1.500 CMV-pp65-peptide-specific CD8+ T cells per 20.000 Colo38 target cells (E:T (Effector to Target Cell Ratio)=1:13)

     Cytotoxicity Assay 
     PBMCs were obtained from whole blood via Ficoll centrifugation. 1×10 7  PBMCs per ml were diluted in T-cell medium (RPMI 1640 supplemented with 10% HS, 2 mM glutamine) and peptide exchange on HLA-A0201 molecules was accomplished by addition of 50 μg/ml CMV pp65 peptide to the suspension. After 2-3 h incubation the PBMCs were diluted 1:10 and plated a 200 μl in 96well round bottom plates. On day 3 20 U/ml IL-2, 25 ng/ml IL-7 and IL-15 were added. After 14 d a re-stimulation was performed. 
     The stimulated T-cells were washed two times in the 96well plates and diluted in 200 μl T-cell medium from which 80 μl were transferred in new 96well round bottom plates. 
     PBMCs were stimulated according to the protocol above. Stimulated PBMCs were irradiated after peptide exchange with 4000 Gray, washed with T-cell medium twice and 1×10 5  PBMCs were pipetted to the 80 μl of T-cells. On day 3 20 U/ml IL-2, 25 ng/ml IL-7 and IL-15 were added. An Xcelligence cytotoxicity assay was performed with re-stimulated T-cells on day 11. 
     63% of the effector cells are CMV-pp65-peptide specific CD8 +  T-cells. 
     The target cell to effector cell ratio was 1:3.5. Cell lysis was determined 10 hours after addition of the respective multi-function protein. The multi-function fusion protein was added to a final concentration of 1 μg/ml. 
     The results are shown in  FIG. 18A  for Colo38 cells and in  FIG. 18B  for WM266 cells.

     Without disulfide stabilization 6.4 mg of multi-function protein can be obtained from 1 1 cultivation supernatant after protein A affinity purification. The final yield after size exclusion chromatography to separate aggregates was 2.2 mg. 
     With disulfide stabilization 17.8 mg of multi-function protein can be obtained from 1 l cultivation supernatant after protein A affinity purification. The final yield after size exclusion chromatography was 11.4 mg due to a lower amount of aggregates due to increased thermal stability by the introduced disulfide bridge. 
     The analytical size exclusion chromatograms after protein A affinity chromatography but prior to aggregate removal by preparative size exclusion chromatography are shown in  FIGS. 19A-1 and 19B-1 . 
     The disulfide-linked multi-function proteins show the same functionality as the non-disulfide-linked multi-function proteins. 
     PBMCs were obtained from whole blood via Ficoll centrifugation. 1×10 7  PBMCs per ml were diluted in T-cell medium (RPMI 1640, supplemented with 10% HS, 2 mM glutamine) and peptide exchange on HLA-A0201 molecules was accomplished by addition of 50 μg/ml CMV pp65 peptide to the suspension. After 2-3 h incubation the PBMCs are diluted 1:10 and plated á 200 μl in 96well round bottom plates. On day 3 20 U/ml IL-2, 25 ng/ml IL-7 and IL-15 were added. Cells were taken 11 d after primary stimulation; 45% of the cells were CMV specific. The results for a target cell to effector cell ration of 1:3 are shown in  FIG. 20 .
