Gene coding for Ara h 2

Gene coding for the panut allergen called Ara h 2.

Introduction

This part is composed of the gene coding for the allergen of peanu Ara h 2 (NCBI: AY158467.1). The peanut allergy prevalence is superior to 5% (lieberman and al. 2018) in developped countries and Ara h 2, among the 17 other peanut allergens, triggers 90% of the patients with peanut allergy (lehmann and al. 2003). Ara h 2 have already been expressed in E. coli and was able to bind the IgE of patient with peanut's allergie (lehmann and al. 2003).

Construction

The objective of the INSA-UPS 2022 team was to display Ara h 2 on the surface of E. coli so the ordered sequence was merged to OmpA membrane lippoprotein (see part BBa_K1694009).
