Ribosome inactivating proteins: Enzymes in search of biological function
Ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) are enzymes (N-glycosidases classified as rRNA N-glycohydrolases, EC 3.2.2.22), mostly of plant origin, but also of bacterial, fungal and algal origin, which cause irreversible inhibition of protein biosynthesis ...

Viruses and the cellular RNA decay machinery. [PDF]
The ability to control cellular and viral gene expression, either globally or selectively, is central to a successful viral infection, and it is also crucial for the host to respond and eradicate pathogens.

Recombinant anti-HIV MAP30, a ribosome inactivating protein: against plant virus and bacteriophage
The ribosome inactivating proteins (RIPs) efficiently decrease the microbial infections in plants. Momordica charantia MAP30 is a type I RIP that has not been investigated against plant viruses or bacteriophages.

Folding-competent and folding-defective forms of Ricin A chain have different fates following retrotranslocation from the endoplasmic reticulum [PDF]
We report that a toxic polypeptide retaining the potential to refold upon dislocation from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to the cytosol (ricin A chain; RTA) and a misfolded version that cannot (termed RTAΔ), follow ER-associated degradation (ERAD ...

Effect of transgenic tobacco plant, Nicotiana tabacum expressing ribosome inactivating gene isolated from the bulbs of Dutch iris, Iris hollandica on biological parameters of Myzus nicotianae (Hem.: Aphididea) and Spodoptera exigua (Lep.: Noctuidae) [PDF]
The use of modified crop plants through gene transfer between different plant species plays an important role in pest control programs. We have investigated the insecticidal properties of two lines of tobacco transgenic plant consisting of IRIP ...

The pokeweed leaf mRNA transcriptome and its regulation by jasmonic acid.
The American pokeweed plant, Phytolacca americana, is recognized for synthesizing pokeweed antiviral protein (PAP), a ribosome inactivating protein (RIP) that inhibits the replication of several plant and animal viruses.
