Bet v I, the major allergen of birch pollen, is a 17 kD cytosolic protein that is quantitatively
extracted from pollen grains by simply washing with water. The cDNA sequence¹ of Bet v I …

In 2D-PAGE analysis of Bet v 1, the major birch pollen allergen, up to 12 isoforms can be
demonstrated that differ in their isoelectric points from about pH 4.9 to pH 5.9. The molecular …

Bet v 1, the major allergen of birch pollen, displays a considerable degree of heterogeneity.
Several charge variants have been detected by two-dimensional IgE immunoblots and …

Bet v 1, the major birch pollen allergen, is a member of a multigene family; a number of
isoforms and homologous proteins from closely related species (alder, hazel and hornbeam) …

Bet v 1 isoforms, the major pollen allergens of white birch (Betula verrucosa), show
sequence homology to a class of pathogenesis‐related (PR) proteins identified in several …

Pollen from trees of the order Fagales (eg birch, alder, hazel, oak, and hornbeam) are a
major cause of Type I allergies observed in early spring. Previously, we reported the cloning …

Bet v 1 proteins, a group of isoforms that constitute the major pollen allergen of the white
birch (Betula verrucosa), are encoded by a complex multigene family which also includes a …

Bet v 1, the major pollen allergen from white birch, displays a considerable degree of
heterogeneity. Until now, all molecular and immunological characterization studies of Bet v 1 …

Pollen of the white birch (Betula verrucosa) is one of the main causes of Type I allergic
reactions (allergic rhinoconjunctivitis, allergic bronchial asthma) in Middle and Northern …

The term allergy was coined in 1906 by the Austrian scientist and pediatrician Clemens
