Ribosome Inactivating Proteins and Apoptosis
, 2010 Ribosome inactivating proteins (RIPs) are RNA N-glycosidases which potently inhibit translation by inactivating ribosomes. RIPs have also been shown to possess the ability to induce apoptosis.

Maize ribosome-inactivating protein uses Lys158-lys161 to interact with ribosomal protein P2 and the strength of interaction is correlated to the biological activities. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) inactivate prokaryotic or eukaryotic ribosomes by removing a single adenine in the large ribosomal RNA. Here we show maize RIP (MOD), an atypical RIP with an internal inactivation loop, interacts with the ribosomal ...

Plant Toxins as Potential Alternatives to Botulinum Toxin for Eye-Movement Disorder Therapy
Stresses, 2023 The most successful alternative to traditional surgery for ocular muscle spasm treatment is the intramuscular injection of botulinum toxin (BTX), which allows the maintenance of the muscle dynamics and the absence of scars.

Combination of Balsamin and Flavonoids Induce Apoptotic Effects in Liver and Breast Cancer Cells
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2020 Flavonoids such as naringenin, quercetin, and naringin are known to exhibit anticancer properties. In this study, we examined the effects of these flavonoids on cell viability and apoptotic pathways of cancer cells, either singly or in combination with ...

Ribosome-inactivating Proteins from Phytolaccaceae
, 2014 The plant family Phytolaccaceae is a rich source of ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs), including the first characterized non-toxic type 1 RIP, pokeweed antiviral protein from the plant Phytolacca americana. The antiviral property is important because
