FEBS Letters, 1982 Pokeweed antiviral protein (PAP) is a protein known to inactivate eukaryotic ribosomes by an unknown enzymatic action and inhibit the production of mammalian viruses in tissue culture. This protein was subjected to a variety of chemical modifications to determine their effects upon ribosomal inactivation, antiviral action, and cytotoxicity.

Expression of a pokeweed antiviral protein in Escherichia coli and its characterization [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 1993 Two expression vectors were constructed to produce a putative mature α‐pokeweed antiviral protein (α‐PAP) in Escherichia coli with its NH2‐ and COOH‐terminal extrapeptides excised. One was for its intracellular expression with a methionine at its NH2‐terminal. The other was for its secretion using an ompA signal peptide. The former product was purified
