Research Abstract |
Allergen analysis of major allergic yolk protein, β'-component (β'-c) was examined in this study and the results were as follows: (1) Five kinds of IgE sequential epitopes in β'-c were identified by overlapped peptide mapping and ELISA. The three kinds of the IgE-binding sites seem to be common epitopes of fish roe, because they were located in high homologous regions of fish β'-cs. (2) Six kinds of β'-c isoforms were prepared from mullet roe and they showed IgE cross-reactivity with salmon β'-c. (3) Vitellogenin subfragment over 1 μg/g were observed in matured salmon muscle and they showed β'-c-specific IgE-binding ability, suggesting food intake of fish meat may induce sensitization to fish roe allergy.
