Is a trypsin-like protease of mites a Der f III allergen?

T Ando et al. Arerugi. 1992 Jun.

Abstract

A trypsin-like protease was purified from mite (Dermatophagoides farinae) fecal extract. In SDS-PAGE, the mite trypsin-like protease showed a single band at 34 kD. The purified trypsin-like protease possessed potent allergenic activity. Both the twenty N-terminal amino acid sequence and the amino acid composition of the purified protease were very similar to those of Der f III. These data strongly suggest that the trypsin-like protease in the mite is a Der f III allergen.
