摘要: Mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris) belongs to the Compositae family, and is one of main causes allergy in late summer autumn. The aim study was characterize allergen Art v 2 from mugwort pollen. Skin prick tests, performed 19 patients allergic 10 control patients, showed an sensitization prevalence 58%, whereas none false-positives were detected among patients. purified by standard chromatography binding Concanavalin A column had apparent molecular mass 33 20 kDa, calculated gel permeation SDS-PAGE under denaturing conditions, respectively, showing that composed two identical subunits. 2-encoding cDNA amplified PCR using degenerate primers based on reported partial amino acid sequences. Cloned encoding contains 140 bp codify for a polypeptide 15.8 with predicted pI value 5.2, potential N-glycosylation site. Protein homology search demonstrated share 55-42% residues pathogenesis-related protein PR-1 tomato, potato, rape, wheat rice. Homology also found Ves 5 (41% residues). Bacterial-expressed recombinant recognized only 21% mugwort-allergic In conclusion, first weed pollen its form could help diagnosis associated allergy.
