Food Allergen Sequences (Release 4)

These data are updated from the publication: Gendel, Steven M. (1998) Sequence Databases for Assessing the Potential Allergenicity of Proteins Used in Transgenic Foods. Advances in Food and Nutrition Research 42; 63-92.

The following table presents the accession numbers for known food allergens in each of three major databases:

SP = SwissProt plus TrEMBL databases

PIR = The Protein Identification Resource

Entrez - Protein accessions available through Entrez at the National Center for Biotechnology Information.

Accessions listed on the same line contain identical sequences - accessions listed on different lines contain different sequences even if they are for the same gene. In a few cases, several accessions in one database must be combined to create a complete sequence. This is indicated by listing multiple accessions with a + sign.

A note on pollen allergens - To avoid confusion and duplication, all proteins expressed in food plants are listed in the food allergen database. In some cases, closely related pollen allergens also occur in non-food plants, and these proteins are listed in the non-food allergen database.
