We describe a group of basic isoforms of Par o 1 (cumulatively referred to as Par o 1b), purified by anion-exchange chromatography. The allergenic activity of Par o 1b was compared with that of the acidic isoform (Par o 1a) by RAST inhibition. Par o 1b showed a cathodic mobility in crossed immunoelectrophoresis. It was found to be homogeneous in SDS-PAGE and SE-HPLC (14.5 kDa), and heterogeneous in PAG-IEF, yielding five IgE-binding bands with pI ranging between 7.9 and 9.6 PAG-IEF individual components were isolated by cation-exchange HPLC. The N-terminal amino acid sequence of the main component (pI 8.8) was determined and found to be similar to that of Par o 1a.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007122 Immunoelectrophoresis A technique that combines protein electrophoresis and double immunodiffusion. In this procedure proteins are first separated by gel electrophoresis (usually agarose), then made visible by immunodiffusion of specific antibodies. A distinct elliptical precipitin arc results for each protein detectable by the antisera.
D007526 Isoelectric Point The pH in solutions of proteins and related compounds at which the dipolar ions are at a maximum. Isoelectric Points,Point, Isoelectric,Points, Isoelectric
