The potato lipase, patatin, has long been thought of as essentially inactive towards triacylglycerols. Recently, technology has been developed to isolate potato proteins in native form as food ingredients at industrial scale. Characterisation of native patatin obtained in this way revealed that this
A member of the patatin multigene family which encodes the major soluble tuber protein was isolated from potato cultivar Désirée. Analysis by strategic nucleotide sequencing demonstrated close homology to analogous regions of previously isolated patatin genomic clones from different cultivars. A
The patatin multicopy gene family encodes the major storage protein in potato tubers and is organized as a single cluster in the potato genome. We sequenced a 154-kb bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) clone containing a portion of the patatin gene cluster. Two putatively functional patatin genes
This paper presents a first structural characterization of isolated patatin, the major potato tuber protein, at ambient and elevated temperatures. Isolated patatin at room temperature is a highly structured molecule at both secondary and tertiary levels. It is estimated from far-ultraviolet circular
The interaction of the major potato allergen patatin, Sol t 1, with IgE was investigated on a quantitative level as a function of heat treatment at different temperatures. On the basis of a number of publications, potato is considered to be a heat-labile allergen, but the molecular explanation for
Potato fruit juice as a by-product of the starch industry contains proteins with interesting functionalities such as protease inhibitors or patatin with its high nutritional value. Due to their functional properties, these proteins are principally of industrial interest. A drawback for the
BACKGROUND
Peeling of raw potatoes may cause allergic symptoms, such as sneezing, wheezing, and contact urticaria, for adults. For children, potatoes as food may cause various allergic reactions. However, the identity and molecular structure of the putative allergens in potato have remained
The clinical significance and molecular specificity of hypersensitivity reactions to raw and cooked potatoes remain ambiguous. We therefore investigated the clinical hypersensitivity to raw and cooked potato in infants suspected to have potato allergy and compared the findings with the occurrence of
Genes for the major storage protein of potato, patatin, have been mapped genetically and physically in both the potato and tomato genomes. In potato, all patatin genes detected by the cDNA clone pGM01 map to a single locus at the end of the long arm of chromosome 8. By means of pulsed field gel
Potential cross-reactions between natural rubber latex and fruit/vegetable specific immunoglobulin (Ig)E antibodies have been reported for many years. This study was designed to investigate the molecular basis of acquired food sensitization focusing on the storage protein patatin and the
Patatin, the major glycoprotein in potato tubers, is encoded by a multigene family. RNA and protein analyses reveal that a homologous mRNA and an immunologically cross-reacting protein can be found in potato flowers, which is similar to patatin in that it displays a lipid acyl hydrolase activity.
A cDNA library from membrane-bound poly(A)+ mRNA of developing potato tubers was constructed and two classes of essentially full-length cDNA clones for a precursor to the major tuber glycoprotein, patatin were isolated. Sequence analysis shows that the two classes are approximately 99% homologous
The major potato tuber protein, patatin, is a family of 40kd glycoproteins that constitutes forty per cent of the soluble protein in tubers but is generally undetectable in other tissues. Fused rocket immunoelectro-phoresis was used to detect in roots patatin that is immunologically different from
Patatin is a family of glycoproteins that accounts for 30-40% of the total soluble protein in potato (Solanum tuberosum) tubers. This protein has been reported not only to serve as a storage protein, but also to exhibit enzymic activity. By using a baculovirus system to express protein from the
Wheat allergy is the most common around the world as gluten is the potential allergen. People diagnosed with wheat allergy were mainly substitute with other novel food such as potato though it is also being reported for allergenic manifestations. Thus there is an increasing demand for developing a
