N-glycome profiling of patatins from different potato species of Solanum genus.

It is hypothesized that oligosaccharides are another potential source of immunological cross-reaction between different plant allergens. Patatin is the most abundant glycoprotein in potato and has been described to have an oligosaccharide of composition Man3(Xyl)GlcNAc2(Fuc). In this work, N-glycosylation profiles of patatin proteins isolated from tubers of different potato species were investigated and compared.
