| Allergen name: | Per a 5 |
|---|---|
| Allergen source: |
Major taxonomic group: Animalia Arthropoda Order: Blattodea Species: Periplaneta americana (American cockroach) NCBI Taxomony ID: 6978 |
| Biochemical name: | Glutathione S-transferase (GST) class delta |
| Molecular mass: | 23 kDa |
| Allergenicity: | Positive IgE tests with 15 of 15 cockroach allergic patients showing positive binding to natural and recombinant protein, with negative responses from 5 of 5. IgE binding tested by dot blot and ELISA. Subjects positive by SPT. NOTE:this submission was from Thailand in 2017, there was a previous paper by Wei et al., 2014 that showed IgE binding and basophil activity to a 98% identical sequence that Wei called Per a 5. That is now added as Per a 5.0102. |
