SDAP provides several ways to find allergen information. The quickest entry point is the text search (Search SDAP) or the alphabetical listing above. Each allergen detail page contains sequences, 3D structures, epitopes, PFAM domains, and links to external databases.
Searches are case-insensitive and check if the query term is present in any of the fields.
For example, a search for fl in allergen scientific name returns Asp fl 13.
Search fields include: allergen scientific name, source scientific name, source common name,
allergen type, and allergen description.
Q:The search results for an allergen contain only the allergen name, source, and type. How can I retrieve the sequence and structure?
A:Many allergens from the IUIS database do not have known sequence, and PDB contains the structure of less than 30 allergens. SDAP has links to sequence information from SWISS-PROT, NCBI and PIR, and to structure information from PDB. If you consider that the sequence or structure of an allergen is not present in SDAP, please send an E-mail to Werner Braun, Surendra Negi, Ovidiu Ivanciuc.
