M. Watanabe et al., PRIMARY STRUCTURE OF AN ALLERGENIC PEPTIDE OCCURRING IN THE CHYMOTRYPTIC HYDROLYSATE OF GLUTEN, Bioscience, biotechnology, and biochemistry, 59(8), 1995, pp. 1596-1597
An allergenic peptide was isolated from the chymotryptic hydrolysate o
f gluten by gel filtration and HPLC. The primary structure of the pept
ide was determined as n-Gin-Gln-Pro-Pro-Phe-Ser-Gln-Gln-Gln-Pro-Pro-Ph
e. The amino acid sequence similarity shows that the peptide originate
d from it low-molecular-weight glutenin chain.
