Natural purified molecules, all others are E.coli-produced recombinants. Biochemical, immunological and clinical details on each allergen are available at www.allergome.org.

°Generated using AllergomeAligner (www.allergome.org) assuming the first ranked IgE reactive allergen as reference sequence ( = 100%).

Complete Pen i 1 sequence is not available. From peptide fragment matching and IgE reactivity it is assumed to be close to Pen m 1.
