In this study group, Pis s 1 is a major immunodominant allergen in pea-allergic children. Evidence for sensitization to nsLTP and 2S albumins was low but requires further verification with regard to conformational epitopes. Recombinant Pis s 1 and related peptides which were exclusively recognized by pea-allergic children may improve in vitro diagnosis of pea allergy once verified in prospective studies with larger study groups.
