Data on mass spectrometry based identification of allergens from sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) pollen proteome
نویسندگان
چکیده
Allergy is a type of abnormal immune reactions, which is triggered by environmental antigens or allergens and mediated by IgE antibodies. Now-a-days mass spectrometry is the method of choice for allergen identification based on homology searching. Here, we provide the mass spectrometry dataset associated with our previously published research article on identification of sunflower pollen allergens (Ghosh et al., 2015 [1]). In this study allergenicity of sunflower (Helianthus annuus) pollen grains were primarily investigated by clinical studies followed by detailed immunobiochemical and immunoproteomic analyses. The mass spectrometry data for the identification of allergens were deposited to ProteomeXchange Consortium via PRIDE partner repository with the dataset identifier PXD002397.

Search for Allergens from the Pollen Proteome of Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.): A Major Sensitizer for Respiratory Allergy Patients
BACKGROUND Respiratory allergy triggered by pollen allergens is increasing at an alarming rate worldwide. Sunflower pollen is thought to be an important source of inhalant allergens. Present study aims to identify the prevalence of sunflower pollinosis among the Indian allergic population and characterizes the pollen allergens using immuno-proteomic tools. METHODOLOGY Clinico-immunological te...
متن کاملChemical composition of the ‘low quality’ pollen of sunflower (Helianthus annuus L
The nutritional needs of bees are receiving renewed attention in the context of declining bee populations and changes in land use that threaten floral resources. We present a comprehensive analysis of the nutritional composition of sunflower (Helianthus annuus) pollen, comparing hand-collected, bee-collected and stored pollen. As found in previous studies, the protein content of sunflower polle...
متن کاملIdentification of Helianthus annuus allergens in subjects with allergy to sunflower
Methods The proteins 2S, 11S and oleosins were purified from a raw sunflower seed extract by FPLC/HPLC and identified by specific antibodies and peptide mass fingerprinting. We tested the immunological recognition of these proteins by basophil activation test (BAT). Four concentrations (1, 0.2, 0.1, 0.02 ìg/ml) of each protein and the sunflower roasted extract were used. Ten patients were selec...
متن کاملMetal accumulation by sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) and the efficacy of its biomass in enzymatic saccharification
Accumulation of metal contaminants in soil as a result of various industrial and anthropogenic activities has reduced soil fertility significantly. Phytoextraction of metal contaminants can improve soil fertility and provide inexpensive feedstock for biorefineries. We investigated the hyperaccumulation capacity of sunflower (Helianthus annuus) biomass by cultivating these plants in various conc...

Appropriate management of soil phosphorus (P) fertility in highly calcareous soils of Iran as around the world should rely upon sound knowledge about the phosphorus reserve and its bioavailability. Despite numerous reports on the positive effects of vesicular arbuscular mycorrhizae (VAM) fungi on phosphorus uptake which is associated to Ectomycorrhiza as a branch of two major branches of group ...
