Immunoscreening of a cDNA library from bovine skin led to isolation of clones coding for an allergen named BDA11. Sequence analysis of the clones revealed that they can encode a protein of 11.6 kDa with a predicted pI of 5.19. Allergenicity of BDA11 was verified by the IgE reactivity in cattle-allergic patients' sera with the recombinant protein produced in Escherichia coli. A biochemically purified native allergen of 11 kDa from bovine dander was identified as BDA11 by peptide sequencing. Homology comparisons showed that BDA11 had a 63.4% amino acid identity with human psoriasin. Psoriasin is a calcium-binding protein expressed in keratinocytes, and it is strongly up-regulated in psoriatic skin. BDA11 also had segments homologous with calcium-binding proteins from three other species.

D009418 S100 Proteins A family of highly acidic calcium-binding proteins found in large concentration in the brain and believed to be glial in origin. They are also found in other organs in the body. They have in common the EF-hand motif (EF HAND MOTIFS) found on a number of calcium binding proteins. The name of this family derives from the property of being soluble in a 100% saturated ammonium sulfate solution.

D000075023 S100 Calcium Binding Protein A7 An S100 calcium binding protein that contains two EF HAND MOTIFS and also binds zinc. It is secreted via a non-classical secretory pathway and expressed by KERATINOCYTES and epithelial cells of the tongue. It has antimicrobial and immunomodulatory activities and is highly expressed in the skin of patients with PSORIASIS, as well as in bladder and skin epithelial carcinomas.
