Evidence that the castor bean allergens are the albumin storage proteins in the protein bodies of castor bean.
The well characterized castor bean (Ricinus communis L.) allergens were identified as the low molecular weight albumin storage proteins in the matrix of the protein bodies in the endosperm. The methods of identification involved molecular weight estimation, amino acid composition, stability at 100 degrees C, solubility in various solvents, gel electrophoresis, and immunological techniques. The ...
متن کاملIdentification of Critical Amino Acids in the IgE Epitopes of Ric c 1 and Ric c 3 and the Application of Glutamic Acid as an IgE Blocker
BACKGROUND The allergenicity of Ricinus communis L. (castor bean, Euphorbiaceae) is associated with components of its seeds and pollen. Castor bean allergy has been described not only in laboratory workers, but also in personnel working in oil processing mills, fertilizer retail, the upholstery industry and other industrial fields. In the present study, we describe the critical amino acids in t...
متن کاملPollinosis to Ricinus communis (castor bean): an aerobiological, clinical and immunochemical study.
BACKGROUND Ricinus communis (castor bean) is a species included into the Euphorbiaceae family, common to all the warm regions of the world. Although the allergenicity of its seed is well known, references are scarce regarding the role played by its pollen as a pneumo-allergen. OBJECTIVES To carry out an aerobiological study of this pollen in the Málaga area (southern Spain); describe the phys...
متن کاملCastor bean allergy in the upholstery department of a furniture factory.
In this study, undertaken to identify the cause of allergy in several upholstery workers in a furniture factory, the workers were handling several different materials, including glue, silicone spray, upholstery fabrics, and felt. Radio-allergo-sorbent test (RAST) assays showed that sera from sensitised workers contained specific IgE towards the felt; however, further investigations using RAST s...
