General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction expression of the tomato beta1,2-xylosyltransferase is down-regulated by RNA interference in transgenic tomato plants. On the basis of IgE immunoblotting assays XylT-RNAi tomato fruits reveal a patient-specific reduction in IgE reactivity. Patients with tomato allergy have reduced mean wheal diameters in skin prick tests, demonstrating a reduced allergenic potential of XylT-RNAi tomato fruits in vivo Solanum lycopersicum
