Parvalbumins are the most important fish allergens, which are heat-stable, classified in the family of calcium-binding EF-hand proteins, and contain one magnesium binding site. The functional connection between calcium and parvalbumin gives fish the high-

Advanced Proteomic and Bioinformatic Tools for Predictive Analysis of Allergens in Novel Foods
In recent years, novel food is becoming an emerging trend increasingly more demanding in developed countries. Food proteins from vegetables (pulses, legumes, cereals), fungi, bacteria and insects are being researched to introduce them in meat ...

Binding of Acrylonitrile to Parvalbumin [PDF]
A previous study has shown that acrylonitrile (ACN) has a long half-life in rainbow trout muscle and that [14C]ACN appears to be bound to a 10,000-Da protein in muscle. The labeled protein was purified from muscle of trout exposed to [14C]ACN, separated on 20% SDS-PAGE, and digested for amino acid analysis and sequence analysis. These studies indicated

Parvalbumin (PA) is a small, acidic, mostly cytosolic Ca2+-binding protein of the EF-hand superfamily. Structural and physical properties of PA are well studied but recently two highly conserved structural motifs consisting of three amino acids each (clusters I and II), which contribute to the hydrophobic core of the EF-hand domains, have been revealed.

Peculiarities of the development, course and diagnostic principles of food anaphylaxis in toddlers
Food anaphylaxis at an early age can be characterized by a development of nonspecific symptoms, including a child’s persistent crying, drowsiness, tearing of the eyes, sore throat, anxiety, numbness in the limbs, and impaired swallowing and speech. It is

Engineering parvalbumin for the heart: optimizing the Mg2+ binding properties of rat β-parvalbumin [PDF]
Parvalbumin (PV), an EF-hand protein family member, is a delayed calcium buffer that exchanges magnesium for calcium to facilitate fast skeletal muscle relaxation. Genetic approaches that express parvalbumin in the heart also enhance relaxation and show promise of being therapeutic against various cardiac diseases where relaxation is compromised ...

Expression and evaluation of IgE-binding capacity of recombinant Pacific mackerel parvalbumin
Background: Parvalbumin is the major and cross-reactive allergen in fish. Sufficient amounts of IgE-reactive recombinant fish parvalbumin are needed for diagnosis and immunotherapy of fish allergy.

Fish allergens at a glance: Variable allergenicity of parvalbumins, the major fish allergens
Fish is a common trigger of severe, food-allergic reactions. Only a limited number of proteins induce specific IgE-mediated immune reactions. The major fish allergens are the parvalbumins.

Parvalbumin in rat kidney [PDF]
The Ca2+‐binding parvalbumin has been purified for the first time from rat kidney. Its biochemical and immunological properties were indistinguishable from the muscle counterpart. By immunohistochemical methods parvalbumin was localized in part of the distal tubule and proximal collecting duct, similar to the vitamin D‐dependent Ca2+‐binding protein ...
