“…4), such as soybean, tomato, latex, rice, barley, alnus glutinosa, etc., that have structural homology to cucumisin (cucumisin‐like proteases) suggests its widespread and ubiquitous occurrence in plants. Additionally, to the best of our knowledge several authors have found an association between allergy to melon and latex [35] or melon and tomato [36], but the protein responsible for such cross‐reacitvity has not been evaluated, and it could be linked to cross‐reactivity to cucumisin‐like proteases from unrelated vegetables. Carbohydrate cross‐reactive determinant (CCD) should be bear in mind on evaluating this possibility.…”
