Fig 2 Identification of 4 fractions from ALB extract. Protein concentrations were determined for 5-mL aliquots eluted from a gel chromatography column. Using these concentrations, we defined 4 fractions (Fig 2, A). The 4 fractions and crude extract were run on an SDS-PAGE gel to identify proteins (Fig 2, B).

Fig 3 Serum IgE antibody titers to the 4 isolated fractions. A, Eight patients with symptoms and an exposure history to ALB. B, Five control sera show detectable IgE antibody levels to fractions I and II, indicating nonspecific activating activity by a protein in these fractions.

Fig 4 Characterization of Har a 1 and Har a 2, two new ALB allergens. A, SDS-PAGE analysis of 3 purified proteins: 10-kd Har a 1, 55-kd Har a 2, and a 40-kd protein. The 40-kd protein showed no binding to IgE antibody. B and C, Anti–Har a 1 (B) and anti–Har a 2 (C) IgE antibody was measured in sera from 20 patients. The dotted line indicates the limit of detection. D, N-terminal sequence of Har a 1.

Fig 5 Partial sequence data on the 55-kd allergen Har a 2. The Har a 2 sequences (bottom) were aligned to an aldehyde dehydrogenase from the red flour beetle (top), accession #XP_969405.

Fig 6 Evidence of cross-reactivity between antiladybug (using a mixture of fractions I, III, and IV) IgE and anticockroach IgE in the ER study sera. A strong correlation was observed in patients with asthma living within the city of Charlottesville, Va (A), but not for patients with allergy living in rural areas with ALB-infested homes (B). Preincubation of sera with B germanica extract showed extensive inhibition of ALB IgE antibody binding with ER sera, but not with ALB sera (C).
