Allergen Details

Allergen name: Tyr p 20
Allergen source: Major taxonomic group: Animalia Arthropoda
Order: Sarcoptiformes
Species: Tyrophagus putrescentiae (Storage mite)
NCBI Taxomony ID: 59818
Biochemical name:Arginine kinase
MW(SDS-PAGE):40 kDa
Allergenicity:298 subjects attending the Taichung Veterans General Hospital were recruited with at least asthma, rhinitis, atopic dermatitis or eczema. They were tested by SPT and ELISA to recombinant Tyr p 20.0101, which had been cloned by PCR. Indirect basophil activation was tested. 51 of 298 were positive for IgE binding by ELISA, 45 of 106 were positive by SPT and 25 of 30 positive by basophil activation.
Allergenicity reference:PubMed:32887361
