Peanut is one of the most allergenic foods. It contains multiple seed storage proteins
identified as allergens, which are responsible for triggering IgE-mediated allergic reactions …

Many plant pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins are allergenic. We isolated three cDNAs, Cry
j 3.1, Cry j 3.2, and Cry j 3.3, that encoded homologs of Jun a 3, a PR protein allergen in …

This study addresses isolating and characterizing a cDNA clone corresponding to a tapetum-
specific transcript, designated as PR-10a from Lilium longiflorum. Anther ontogeny is …

METHODS: The F2 generation produced by crossbreeding peanuts that were missing either
an Ara h 2 or Ara h 3 isoform were homogenized and the proteins were extracted. The …

An indirect competitive ELISA was developed allowing the detection of hidden peanut
protein residues down to 2 ppm (micorgrams per gram) in various foods. The high-titer …

Ara h 8 is the peanut allergen homologous to the birch pollen allergen Bet v 1. Because Bet
v 1 has been shown to bind lipophilic ligands, the aim of this investigation was to determine …

There are two varieties, the red pitaya, of Colombian origin, and the yellow pitaya, of
Vietnamese origin. In wild conditions, the plant is of climbing type and has large white …

Tree nuts as a group cause a significant number of fatal anaphylactic reactions to foods.
Walnuts (Juglans spp.) are one of the leading causes of allergic reactions to tree nuts in the …

Background Up to 25% of food allergic subjects in central E urope suffer from carrot allergy.
Until now, two isoforms of the major carrot (D aucus carota) allergen Dau c 1 have been …

Type 1 hypersensitivity to peanut proteins is a well-recognized health problem. Several
peanut seed storage proteins have been identified as allergens. Ara h 3, a glycinin protein …
