Exercise 3
One of the main safety issues associated with genetically modified crops is the potential for allergenicity caused by introducing an allergen or by changing the level of expression of a host allergen. Based on the observation that common allergenic proteins often contain identical stretches of a few (six or seven) amino acids, researchers developed a method for screening transgenic crops to evaluate potential allergenic properties (Kleter Peijnenburg, 2002. BMC Struct. Biol. 2: 8). How do you think they accomplished this?
