| + | Ragweed allergens affect several million people in the USA and Canada. To date, only two ragweed allergens, Amb t 5 and Amb a 11, have their structures determined and deposited to the Protein Data Bank. Here, we present structures of methylated ragweed allergen Amb a 8, Amb a 8 in the presence of poly-L-proline and Art v 4 (mugwort allergen). Amb a 8 and Art v 4 are panallergens belonging to the profilin family of proteins. They share significant sequence and structural similarities which results in cross-recognition by IgE antibodies. Molecular and immunological properties of Amb a 8 and Art v 4 are compared to those of Bet v 2 (birch pollen allergen), as well as to other allergenic profilins. We purified recombinant allergens that are recognized by patient IgE and are highly cross-reactive. It was determined that the analyzed allergens are relatively unstable. Structures of Amb a 8 in complex with poly-L-proline10 or poly-L-proline14 are the first structures of the plant profilin in complex with proline-rich peptides. Amb a 8 binds the poly-L-proline in a mode similar to that observed in human, mouse and P. falciparum profilin-peptide complexes. However, only some of residues that form the peptide binding site are conserved. | ||
