Descriptions
An albumin obtained from the white of eggs. It is a member of the serpin superfamily. Source: National Library of Medicine, MeSH 2006
Gal d 2, also known as Ovalbumin and Albumin, is a 44 kDa phosphoglycoprotein.
Ovalbumin is a major allergen of Hen's egg white and is the most abundant of Egg white proteins, comprising 54% of the total proteins and a fivefold greater quantity than Ovomucoid.
Ovalbumin was previously considered to be the most important allergen of Egg white. But its importance was over-estimated due to frequent contamination of commercial preparations with Ovomucoid. In spite of a difference in the molecular weights of Ovomucoid and Ovalbumin, they cannot be completely separated by some processes, which has lead to the erroneous assumption of cross-reactions.
