Molecules, Vol. 26, Pages 256: Structural Characterization of Act c 10.0101 and Pun g 1.0101 —Allergens from the Non-Specific Lipid Transfer Protein Family

Conclusions: Structural studies indicate a conformational flexibility of allergens from the nsLTP family and suggest that immunoglobulin E binding to some surface regions of these allergens may depend on ligand binding. Both Act c 10.0101 and Pun g 1.0101 are likely to be involved in cross-reactive reactions involving other proteins from the nsLTP family.
