Description
Introduction: Nonspecific lipid transfer proteins (nsLTPs) are expressed throughout the plant tissues. They have a typical cysteine pattern forming disulfide bonds and are important allergens in fruits and tree nuts. Sensitization to nsLTP Cor a 8.0101 is more frequent among patients with hazelnut allergy in the Mediterranean area than the northern parts of Europe.
Description: Recombinant Non-specific Lipid-Transfer Protein Cor a 8 produced in SF9 is a glycosylated, polypeptide chain having a calculated molecular mass of 11kDa.
Cor a 8.0101 is expressed with a 10xHis tag and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques
