To establish a spectral method which examine the extent of recombinant allergen renaturation. Methods The refolding process of recombinant bovine β-1actoglobulin was investigated by using circular dichroism, fluorescence and synchronous fluorescence spectra. IgE-binding capacity of recombinant protein was analyzed by ELISA. In addition, bioinformatic methods were used to explain the spectral characteristics and analyze the relationship between the conformational changes and the immunoreactivity of the protein during renaturation in vitro. Results Renaturation of recombinant bovine β-1actoglobulin resulted in a more compact structure resembling the natural counterpart with stronger IgE-binding capacity. Conclusion The degree of protein renaturation Results from this study may be of help for food future. correlated with the IgE-binding capacity of the protein. allergy therapy and development of vaccination in the展开更多
