The peanut (Arachis hypogaea), also known as the groundnut, [2] goober (US), [3] goober pea, [4] pindar (US) [3] or monkey nut (UK), is a legume crop grown mainly for its edible seeds. It is widely grown in the tropics and subtropics by small and large commercial producers, both as grain legume [ 5 ] and as an oil crop. [ 6 ]
[2] [3] At least one species, the peanut (Arachis hypogaea), is a major food crop species of global importance; some of the other species are cultivated for food to a small extent in South America. Other species such as A. pintoi are cultivated worldwide as forage and soil conditioner plants, with the leaves providing high-protein feed for ...

Ara h 1 is a seed storage protein from Arachis hypogaea (peanuts). It is a heat stable 7S vicilin-like globulin [1] with a stable trimeric form [2] that comprises 12-16% of the total protein in peanut extracts. [3] Ara h 1 is known because sensitization to it was found in 95% of peanut-allergic patients from North America. In spite of this high ...
