1. A polypeptide comprising a tenth fibronectin type III (10Fn3 ) domain, wherein the 10Fn3 domain (i) comprises a loop, AB;
- a loop, BC;
a loop, CD;
a loop, DE;
a loop EF; and
a loop FG;
(ii) has at least one loop selected from loop BC, DE, and FG with an altered amino acid sequence relative to the sequence of the corresponding loop of the human 10Fn3 domain, (iii) binds human epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) with a disassociation constant of less than 10−
4M, and (iv) comprises an amino acid sequence at least 80% identical to any one of SEQ ID NOs;
207-231.

Abstract
The present invention relates to single domain proteins that bind to epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). The invention also relates to single domain proteins for use in diagnostic, research and therapeutic applications. The invention further relates to cells comprising such proteins, polynucleotide encoding such proteins or fragments thereof, and to vectors comprising the polynucleotides encoding the innovative proteins.
