Allergenic Proteins of Hevea brasiliensis Latex Fractions
A spectrum of proteins derived from the rubber tree, Hevea brasiliensis, reacted with IgE in the plasma from persons allergic to natural rubber latex. Latex B-serum, C-serum and rubber particle membrane proteins were all found to contain allergenie proteins. Variations were observed in the reactivity of the latex, IgE positive plasma to the different proteins. Monoclonal antibodies have been de...
متن کاملGlycolipid composition of Hevea brasiliensis latex.
Glycolipids of fresh latex from three clones of Hevea brasiliensis were characterized and quantified by HPLC/ESI-MS. Their fatty acyl and sterol components were further confirmed by GC/MS after saponification. The four detected glycolipid classes were steryl glucosides (SG), esterified steryl glucosides (ESG), monogalactosyl diacylglycerols (MGDG) and digalactosyl diacylglycerols (DGDG). Sterol...
متن کاملA Stimulator Protein of Rubber Biosynthesis from Hevea brasiliensis Latex
A rubber biosynthesis stimulator protein (RBSP)from the C-serum of Hevea brasiliensis latex was purified and characterised. This proteinaceous factor stimulates the incorporation of isopentenyl diphosphate into rubber and thereby enhances the rate of rubber biosynthesis. The heat stable RBSP is shown to have a molecular weight of 13 068 Da by mass spectroscopy. Amino acid sequence of peptide fr...
متن کاملRubber Elongation Factor (REF), a Major Allergen Component in Hevea brasiliensis Latex Has Amyloid Properties
REF (Hevb1) and SRPP (Hevb3) are two major components of Hevea brasiliensis latex, well known for their allergenic properties. They are obviously taking part in the biosynthesis of natural rubber, but their exact function is still unclear. They could be involved in defense/stress mechanisms after tapping or directly acting on the isoprenoid biosynthetic pathway. The structure of these two prote...
متن کاملGenes expressed in the latex of Hevea brasiliensis.
Rubber (cis-1,4-polyisoprene), an important raw material for many industrial uses, is synthesized in the latex of Hevea brasiliensis (Willd. ex A. Juss.) Müll. Arg. We postulated that the genes uniquely or preferentially expressed in the latex may be important for rubber biosynthesis. We constructed cDNA libraries from the latex of H. brasiliensis to investigate the genes expressed in the latex...
