Characterization and epitope prediction of phosphopyruvate hydratase from Penaeus monodon (black tiger shrimp).
Shellfish allergies constitute an important cause of food-induced anaphylactic reactions, which pose challenges to food safety and human health worldwide. In the present study, the specific IgE (sIgE) binding characteristics of different shrimp proteins of black tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon) to the sera of eight shrimp-allergic patients from China were studied by sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and nanoliquid chromatography time-of-flight mass spectrometry. According to the PLGS scores (>2000) and the sequence coverage (>40%), eight proteins with sIgE binding activity were identified, including myosin heavy chain type 1 (K4Q4N8), hemocyanin (G1AP69 and Q95V28), phosphopyruvate hydratase (O96656), arginine kinase (C7E3T4), tropomyosin (A1KYZ2), sarcoplasmic calcium binding protein (H7CHW2) and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (A0A097BQP2). Among these eight proteins, phosphopyruvate hydratase was a prevalent IgE-binding protein among these Chinese patients with binding observed in 100% of sera. Moreover, 13 peptides were predicted as epitopes of phosphopyruvate hydratase. These new details help us to understand the crustacean IgE-binding proteins especially Penaeus monodon IgE-binding proteins, that would cause allergic reaction to Chinese patients. And our findings may provide essential information to improve allergy prevention and clinical treatment to shrimp allergy in China. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: This research may have diagnostic and therapeutic value for shrimp allergies in China.
