Allergen source: Major taxonomic group: Plantae basal Mesangiosperms
Order: Proteales
Species: Macadamia integrifolia (Macadamia)
NCBI Taxomony ID: 60698
Biochemical name:Vicilin
MW(SDS-PAGE):50 kDa
Allergenicity:Sera of 8 Macadamia nut allergic subjects were tested for IgE binding to purified natural protein by ELISA and four were positive. The protein was confirmed by LC-MSMS. There is a Pro-peptide of ~ 179 AA, and the mature peptide from 180-625 AA. The submitters indicate the protein is glycosylated, but the glycan does not bind IgE, the protein does.
Allergenicity reference:PubMed:34525424
