Order: Poales
Species: Sorghum halepense (Johnson grass)
NCBI Taxomony ID: 4560
Biochemical name:Expansin-like protein; grass pollen group 2 allergen
MW(SDS-PAGE):12 kDa
Allergenicity:11 of 11 patients with Johnson grass pollen sensitivity by SPT showed serum IgE reactivity by immunoblotting with whole Johnson grass pollen extract with a band identified as Sor h 2. Sera pooled from six of these patients showed IgE reactivity with a protein spot on 2D immunoblot matching this sequence identified by mass spectrometery of a protein excised from a replica gel.
