Protein–protein interactions are essential in every aspect of cellular activity. Multiprotein
complexes form and dissociate constantly in a specifically tuned manner, often by conserved …

The majority of plant food allergens can be grouped into just 4 protein families. This review
summarizes the evolutionary relationships of allergenic and nonallergenic members of …

GAF domains are ubiquitous motifs present in cyclic GMP (cGMP)‐regulated cyclic
nucleotide phosphodiesterases, certain adenylyl cyclases, the bacterial transcription factor …

Background: Hyaluronic acid (HA) is the most abundant glycosaminoglycan of vertebrate
extracellular spaces and is specifically degraded by a β-1, 4 glycosidase. Bee venom …

Profilins are ubiquitous proteins, present in all eukaryotic cells and identified as allergens in
pollen, latex and plant foods. The highly conserved structure justifies the cross-reactive …

The symptoms characteristic of allergic hypersensitivity are caused by the release of
mediators, ie, histamine, from effector cells such as basophils and mast cells. Allergens with …

Cells undergo changes in shape and motile behaviour during development and
differentiation. These processes are executed by the cytoskeleton and initiated in response …

A striking feature of the eukaryotic actin cytoskeleton is its ability to undergo dramatic
reorganization in response to internal and environmental stimuli. In plant cells, several …

Profilins are small proteins involved in actin dynamics. In accordance with this function, they
are found in all eukaryotes and are structurally highly conserved. However, their precise role …

Profilin is an actin monomer binding protein that, depending on the conditions, causes either
polymerization or depolymerization of actin filaments. In plants, profilins are encoded by …
