Bioinformation

Gene Symbol TPM1
Gene Full Name Tropomyosin
Background Not only because of their cross-reactivity to house dust mites and crustaceans, molluscs represent an important group of food allergens. In this regard tropomyosin, which can be found in all common mollusc species, is the most important protein. In cooked and uncooked mollusc extracts this protein partly represents a high amount of total protein.
For mollusc allergic persons hidden mollusc proteins in food are a critical problem. Already very low amounts of the allergen can cause allergic reactions, which may lead to anaphylactic shock in severe cases. Because of this, mollusc allergic per­sons must strictly avoid the consumption of mollusc containing food. Cross-contamination, most­ly in consequence of the production pro­cess, is often noticed. This explains why in many cases the existence of mollusc residues in food cannot be excluded. For this reason sensitive detection systems for mollusc residues in food­stuffs are required
Function Binds to actin filaments in muscle and non-muscle cells. Plays a central role, in association with the troponin complex, in the calcium dependent regulation of vertebrate striated muscle contraction. Smooth muscle contraction is regulated by interaction with caldesmon. In non-muscle cells is implicated in stabilizing cytoskeleton actin filaments. [UniProt]
Cellular Localization Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. [UniProt]
