Abstract
The invention relates to a method by which expression cDNA clone banks are screened by means of IgE antibodies derived from the sera of allergic individuals, or by means of monoclonal or polyconal antibodies. This type of screening is used for the detection of polynucleotides whose open-reading frames code for allergenically active proteins. These proteins are characterized in that their biological activity as allergens is equal to that of plant allergens occurring in nature.
