ABSTRACT:
Recombinant DNA expression vectors or cloning vehicles capable of expressing a polypeptide displaying the antigenicity of an allergen of house dust mites of the genus Dermatophagoides. A synthetic protein or polypeptide displaying the antigenicity of all or a portion of an allergen of house dust mites of the genus Dermatophagoides. Methods of diagnosing and treating such allergies.
