  • Patent number: 8709435
    Abstract: Hypoallergenic mosaic antigens assembled from naturally-occurring allergens are disclosed herein. Also disclosed are methods of making such hypoallergenic mosaic antigens, particularly those derived from plant allergens such as timothy grass pollen (Phl p 1 and Phl p 2) and birch pollen (Bet v 1). In a particularly preferred embodiment, the method of making the hypoallergenic mosaic antigen involves the steps of (a) cleaving a naturally-occurring allergen into at least two, preferably at least three non-overlapping peptide fragments and (b) recombining the peptide fragments such that the mosaic antigen includes all or substantially all of the amino acids of the original naturally-occurring allergen, though in a different order.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20030031685
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of an isolated allergen component in a serological assay for improved precision in the identification of the actual sensitizer in diagnosis of allergy. This enables not only adequate measures for avoidance of the causative agent but also appropriate selection of treatment of the allergic disease.
