Recent reports showed that patients could be sensitized to fish tropomyosin (TM), who exhibited clinical symptoms. However, little information is available on differences in TM immune cross-reactivity among fish, shrimp and clam. Moreover, allergenicity might change during the food processing owing to the change of protein structure. In this study, we developed a nonthermal extraction technique to purified TM, IgG/IgE binding, cross-reactivity and structures were compared. Results showed that raw and boiled fish-TM were not cross reactive and had weak recognition of shrimp, while, shrimp-TM and clam-TM were cross reactive. The ELISA further confirmed that fish-TM was not able to trigger allergic immune response in shrimp sensitive subjects, while, surface hydrophobicity of fish-TM was higher. The study demonstrated that fish-TM, being with high sequence similarity, did not have cross-reactivity with shrimp and clam-TM. They could have a variable degree of IgE binding depending on subject sensitivity and allergenicity.
