Abstract

Several types of allergies are currently known and are characterized by an exaggerated response of the immune system to substances from various sources called allergens. One of them is food allergy, which is becoming more common in the population. For this reason, it is necessary to describe the issue from several aspects including genomic variability of plant allergens. The objective of this study was to analyse intraspecific variability of Bet v 1 of 10 different varieties of apple species (Malus domestica Borkh.). BBAP technique for genomic determination of the presence of Bet v 1 homologs at the DNA level was performed. Degenerate primers that anneal a variable and conserved part of PR-10 protein homologues genes were used in the analyse. Amplicons were generated and formed relatively monomorphic profiles, indicating the stability of the given isoforms of Bet v 1 within the selected apple varieties. To evaluate the potential allergenicity of selected varieties further studies on another molecular level such as a comparison of gene expression of the PR-10 family members and their protein expression levels are needed.
