The prospective exclusive license
territory may be worldwide and the
fields of use may be limited to the
following: The manufacture,
distribution, sale and use of fusion
proteins for the treatment of (a) growth
disorders and (b) diseases of cartilage
degeneration.

monoclonal antibodies and antibody
fragments that specifically bind to
matrilin-3, conjugates including these
molecules, and nucleic acid molecules
encoding the antibodies, antigen
binding fragments and conjugates. Also
disclosed are compositions including
the disclosed antibodies, antigen
binding fragments, conjugates, and
nucleic acid molecules. Methods of
treating or inhibiting a cartilage disorder
in a subject, as well as methods of
increasing chondrogenesis in cartilage
tissue are further provided. The
methods can be used, for example, for
treating or inhibiting a growth plate
disorder in a subject, such as a skeletal
dysplasia or short stature.
