The well characterized castor bean (Ricinus communis L.) allergens were identified as the low molecular weight albumin storage proteins in the matrix of the protein bodies in the endosperm. The methods of identification involved molecular weight estimation, amino acid composition, stability at 100 degrees C, solubility in various solvents, gel electrophoresis, and immunological techniques. The finding explains the wide distribution of allergens in various seeds.
特征明确的蓖麻子(Ricinus communis L.)过敏原被鉴定为胚乳中蛋白体基质中的低分子量白蛋白储存蛋白。鉴定方法包括分子量估计、氨基酸组成、100℃下的稳定性、在各种溶剂中的溶解性、凝胶电泳和免疫技术。这一发现解释了过敏原在各种种子中的广泛分布。
