Ribosome inactivating proteins (RIPs) from plants, fungi or bacteria are extremely lethal due to their N-glycosidase activity on eukaryotic ribosomal RNA. As the name indicates, these toxins inactivate ribosomes; thereby inhibit protein synthesis leading

Survival after an Intentional Ingestion of Crushed Abrus Seeds
Abrus precatorius seeds contain one of the most potent toxins known to man. However, because of the seed’s outer hard coat the vast majority of ingestions cause only mild symptoms and typically results in complete recovery.
