Food Allergies - Unknown Protein Review Question

Quiz

Question

It is unlikely that proteins transferred from sources of unknown allergenic potential will be allergens because most of these proteins are expressed at very low levels.

Looks Good! Correct: Explanation: Proteins transferred from sources of unknown allergenic potential are not likely to be allergens because most of these proteins are expressed at very low levels in the genetically engineered food, and allergenic sensitization usually occurs with the major proteins in foods.
