name:
Sugar sequences of allergenically active oligosaccharide alcohols isolated from a large-molecular-size sea squirt antigen termed H-antigen.
description:
The epitope HPG-ß
2-N8 is GalNAc1 -> 2Fuc1 -> (GalNAc1 -> 3GalNAc1 ->)3,4GalNAc1 -> (Fuc1 ->)3,6GalNAc-ol.
Allergenic activity was examined by injecting the epitope into the skin of patients with sea squirt allergy and scoring erythema after 15 min. The epitope was derived from a glycopepeptide fraction isolated from a Pronase digest of a large-size H-antigen, isolated from the body fluid of a sea squirt.
