BACKGROUND

Germins and the related germin-like proteins (GLPs) are glycoproteins expressed in many plants in response to biotic and abiotic stress. To test the potential impact of germins and GLPs, recombinant germin from Triticum aestivum (tGermin) and GLPs from Arabidopsis thaliana (tGLP), both produced in transformed tobacco plants, were used.

METHODS

Sera from 82 patients with type I allergy to birch, grass or mugwort pollen and/or wheat were tested in immunoblot for IgE binding to tGermin and tGLP, and the IgE reactivity after chemical and enzymatic deglycosylation was analysed. The biological activity of tGermin and tGLP was determined in a histamine release assay and in skin prick testing (SPT).

RESULTS

In an immunoblotting assay, 24 out of 82 tested sera (29.26%) from allergic patients showed IgE-binding to tGermin, and 18 of these sera (21.95%) displayed also IgE-binding to tGLP. The deglycosylation experiments indicated that glycan moieties contribute significantly to the IgE-binding of tGermin and tGLP. Both tGermins and tGLP induced specifically histamine release in an in vitro assay as well as in SPT.

CONCLUSIONS

Our in vitro and in vivo findings demonstrate that germin and GLPs are capable to bind IgE most likely via carbohydrate determinants, and represent allergenic molecules.
