Ara h 1 CD4+ T cell epitope-based peptides: candidates for a peanut allergy therapeutic
BACKGROUND Peanut allergy is a life-threatening condition; there is currently no cure. While whole allergen extracts are used for specific immunotherapy for many allergies, they can cause severe reactions and even fatalities in peanut allergy. OBJECTIVE To identify short, HLA-degenerate CD4(+) T cell epitope-based peptides of the major peanut allergen Ara h 1 that target allergen-specific T c...
متن کاملPeanut allergen (Ara h 1) detection in foods containing chocolate.
Inadvertent exposure to peanut in foods poses health risks for peanut-allergic individuals that can be reduced by improving detection systems for allergen contaminants in food products and manufacturing processes. Detection of peanut in chocolate has been especially difficult. We report the optimization of conditions for measuring a major peanut allergen, Ara h 1, in chocolate with the use of a...
متن کاملImpedance biosensor for peanut protein Ara h 1.
A reagentless electrochemical impedance biosensor for detection of peanut protein Ara h 1, one of the allergenic proteins found in peanuts, has been demonstrated using an Au substrate onto which an antibody film has been immobilized. Following initial stabilization of the self-assembled monolayer (SAM) through which the antibody is immobilized, the biosensor substrate exhibits stable impedance ...
متن کاملMolecular cloning and epitope analysis of the peanut allergen Ara h 3.
Peanut allergy is a significant IgE-mediated health problem because of the increased prevalence, potential severity, and chronicity of the reaction. Following our characterization of the two peanut allergens Ara h 1 and Ara h 2, we have isolated a cDNA clone encoding a third peanut allergen, Ara h 3. The deduced amino acid sequence of Ara h 3 shows homology to 11S seed-storage proteins. The rec...
متن کاملAra h 6 complements Ara h 2 as an important marker for IgE reactivity to peanut
The similarities of two major peanut allergens, Ara h 2 and Ara h 6, in molecular size, amino acid sequence, and structure have made it difficult to obtain natural Ara h 6 free of Ara h 2. The objectives of this study were to purify natural Ara h 6 that is essentially free of Ara h 2 and to compare its IgE reactivity and potency in histamine release assays to Ara h 2. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-pol...
