The main results of the research performed in the last 30 years on ribosome-inactivating
proteins (RIPs) are reviewed, with emphasis on the new, controversial and uncertain …

Ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) are toxic N-glycosidases that depurinate eukaryotic
and prokaryotic rRNAs, thereby arresting protein synthesis during translation. RIPs are …

Ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIP) are a family of plant enzymes for which a unique
activity was determined: rRNA N-glycosidase at a specific universally conserved position, A …

A great deal of research has been focused on the isolation, characterization, and regulation
of expression of pathogenesis-related proteins since the discovery that several of the PR …

▪ Abstract Ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) are toxic N-glycosidases that depurinate
the universally conserved α-sarcin loop of large rRNAs. This depurination inactivates the …

Ribosome-Inactivating Proteins (RIPs) are enzymes that trigger the catalytic inactivation of
ribosomes and other substrates. They are present in a large number of plants and have …

Ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) are toxins that act as N-glycosidases (EC 3.2. 2.22).
They are mainly produced by plants and classified as type 1 RIPs and type 2 RIPs. There …

Ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) either single-chain (type 1) or two-chain (type 2) are
frequent in plants, often in multiple forms. They are RNA N-glycosidases, have antiviral …

Protein toxins confer a defense against predation/grazing or a superior pathogenic
competence upon the producing organism. Such toxins have been perfected through …

Elderberry (Sambucus nigra L., fructus) is a very potent herbal drug, deriving from traditional
European medicine (TEM). Ripe elderberries are rich in anthocyanins, flavonols, flavonol …
