Allergen source: Major taxonomic group: Animalia Chordata
Order: Lagomorpha
Species: Oryctolagus cuniculus (Rabbit)
NCBI Taxomony ID: 9986
Biochemical name:Odorant binding protein 2; member of the lipocalin family
MW(SDS-PAGE):18 kDa (SDS-PAGE, non-red.), 22 kDa (SDS-PAGE red.), 16,351 Da (MALDI-MS)
Allergenicity:Sera from 28 patients allergic to rabbit (symptoms, SPT, sIgE) were tested by ELISA with purified natural and recombinant Ory c 2. Of those, 20 and 21 (71% and 75%) had IgE to the natural and recombinant allergen, respectively, with a high correlation (r = 0.98) between both values. nOry c 2 activated basophils from all 3 tested patients.
