SDS-PAGE of the yellow mealworm (second line labelled, YMW). The first line corresponds to the electrophoretic migration of the MW markers (kDa). Lines 1, 2, 3, and 4 correspond to the Western blots of a yellow mealworm extract revealed by IgE-containing sera from different patients allergic to shrimp. The identified allergenic fractions HSP (heat shock protein) 70, α-amylase, arginine kinase (AK), tropomyosin (TPM), apolipophorin-III (apoLp-III), larval cuticle protein (LCP), and 12 kDa hemolymph protein (12kDa-HLP (hemolymph protein)) of mealworm are indicated by arrows.
