name:
Construction of hevein (Hev b 6.02) with reduced allergenicity for immunotherapy of latex allergy by comutation of six amino acid residues on the conformational IgE epitopes.
description:
Competition ELISA confirmed that mutant Hev with the 6 epitopic residues mutated was much less effective at inhibiting binding of patient IgE to Hev.
