Abstract

In the present paper, we have used 2-DE coupled to MS analysis to examine the molecular variability of the Ole e 1 allergen in three olive cultivars (cvs). Our results confirmed that the predicted polymorphism of Ole e 1 at cDNA level is extended to the expressed protein. The profiles of both the Ole e 1 peptides and the N-glycan variants significantly changed among cvs. We observed that Picual and Arbequina cvs presented the highest and lowest degree of Ole e 1 polymorphism, respectively. Some of these peptides and N-glycans were distributed in a cv-specific manner. The putative implications of this molecular polymorphism in the development of the allergy symptoms are discussed.
