    Notes: The degradation of desmin was studied in postmortem white dorsal muscle from sea bass, brown trout, turbot and sardine, stored at 0–4°C. Based on desmin specific antibody tests, results showed that the extent and rate of desmin degradation in postmortem fish muscle varied considerably among species. There was no degradation of desmin during the first 4 days postmortem storage of sea bass and brown trout, whereas 10 to 20% of muscle desmin was degraded during the first 4 days of postmortem storage of turbot. Sardine muscle presented a very complex pattern of desmin degradation products and aggregated desmin fragments detected within the first 24h. Most polypeptides were larger than the nondenatured desmin. Desmin degradation would not be a suitable marker for evaluation of postmortem changes of stored fish.

    Notes: Background:  The major allergen of Baltic cod (Gadus callarias) is a 12.3-kDa parvalbumin with two calcium-binding sites corresponding to EF-hand motifs. Our group found a 24-kDa IgE-reactive band that was also recognized by a monoclonal antiparvalbumin antibody in Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua). Our purpose was to purify and to determine the cDNA deduced sequence of this new cod allergen.Methods:  Proteins from pre rigor mortis Atlantic cod were separated by gel filtration and the eluted peaks were analysed by SDS-PAGE and Western blotting with sera of sensitized patients and with antiparvalbumin. Protein bands were microsequenced, RNA transcripts were amplified by reverse transcription and polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) using primer combinations overlapping the open reading frame.Results:  Four IgE and antiparvalbumin reactive proteins(12.5, 24, 38 and 51 kDa) were detected in gel filtration eluate. The cDNA deduced sequence of the 24 kDa protein had 109 amino acid residues with a molecular weight of 11.5 kDa and a theoretical pI of 4.34. The 24 kDa band corresponded therefore to a dimer of a β-parvalbumin. Its homology was higher with Sal sI than with Gad cI. This new allergen was named Gad mI.Conclusion:  We have characterized a new parvalbumin allergen in Gadus morhua. This protein formed oligomers in native and in reducing conditions. Gad mI and Gad cI may correspond to two distinct genes of Gadus species.

    Notes: Background:  A 41-kDa IgE-reactive protein (p41) was purified from raw cod extract. This protein is homologous to an aldehyde phosphate dehydrogenase (APDH). The present study aims to evaluate the IgE-binding and the cross-reactivity of this protein in 13 patients allergic to codfish.Methods:  IgE binding of sera from 13 patients allergic to codfish was tested by Sepharose RIA and by Western blot.Results:  Among the 13 patients, only 4 had specific IgE to APDH detected by APDH-Sepharose RIA. The two patients who had the highest level of specific IgE to human APDH also had a class 5–6 CAP-RAST IgE level to codfish, but two other patients with a class 5 had a negative APDH-Sepharose IgE-RIA. Relative content of APDH was higher in extracts of commercial nonfrozen fish, compared to pre rigor mortis, post rigor mortis and frozen commercial codfish. A high homology of codfish APDH was found with the corresponding human enzyme. A significant inhibition of APDH-Sepharose by human and, to a lesser extent, by rabbit APDH was observed. Western blot of APDH codfish extract showed two bands at 41 and 36 kDa, respectively.Conclusions:  We have characterized a new allergen from codfish, which had a high level of homology in different species. The p41 relative content of extracts from nonfrozen codfish was higher than in the other samples assessed.

    Notes: Allergy to fish is one of the most common food allergies. Gad c 1 is the only fish allergen which has been purified and characterized. Other allergens have been detected by Western blot in cod extracts. We have now improved the Western-blot procedure in order to characterize fish IgE-reactive proteins from extracts prepared under different conditions: pre-rigor mortis and postrigor mortis. EDTA addition or not. and DEAE ion-exchange chromatography. Several IgE-reactive protein bands have been identified over a wide molecular-weight range. In particular, the 104- and 130-kDa IgEreactive protein bands were detected. These new bands may correspond to aggregates, as EDTA increased the relative amount of the 60-, 67-, 104-, and 130-kDa IgE-reactive protein bands in Western blot. All these bands were also detected by an antiparvalbumin monoclonal antibody, specific to the first calcium-binding site. The longer period of storage increased the relative amounts of the 41-, 80-, 104-. and 130-kDa IgE-reactive protein bands. The 18-kDa band was detected only in fish stored for several days. In conclusion, we have described IgE-reactive protein bands over a wide molecular-weight range (12–130 kDa) in Western blot of cod extract, and shown that EDTA and storage conditions may influence the relative distribution of IgE-reactive protein bands.
