Application

Application Comment Organism
nutrition serum from patients allergic to maize shows IgE binding to a 56 kDa protein present in both maize and rice, that is abundant in the rice endosperm. The protein is identical with granule-bound starch synthase, a product of the Waxy gene. In a Waxy mutant of rice, the IgE-binding protein is absent. Waxy mutants of rice may be a potential source of hypoallergenic diet for patients sensitized to the 56 kDa rice allergen Oryza sativa
