Elderberries: A Source of Ribosome-Inactivating Proteins with Lectin Activity
Sambucus (Adoxaceae) species have been used for both food and medicine purposes. Among these, Sambucus nigra L. (black elder), Sambucus ebulus L. (dwarf elder), and Sambucus sieboldiana L. are the most relevant species studied.

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.

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 ...

A single chain ribosome‐inactivating protein with RNA N‐glycosidase activity, here named Dianthin 29, was isolated from leaves of Dianthus barbatus L. Incubation of intact Escherichia coli ribosomes with Dianthin 29 and subsequent aniline treatment of the isolated rRNA releases a rRNA fragment of 243 nucleotides from 23 S rRNA.

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.

Dianthin and Its Potential in Targeted Tumor Therapies
Dianthin enzymes belong to ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) of type 1, i.e., they only consist of a catalytic domain and do not have a cell binding moiety.

Plant suspension cells were treated with recombinant OsRIP1, a type 1 ribosome-inactivating protein (RIP) from rice (Oryza sativa L.). OsRIP1 triggered cell death in tobacco BY-2 cells but not in Arabidopsis PSB-D cells. Phenotypic changes in BY-2 cells exposed to OsRIP1, included loss of growth capacity, loss of integrity of the plasma membrane and ...

Ribosome-inactivating Proteins from Phytolaccaceae
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

Protein folding on the ribosome studied using NMR spectroscopy [PDF]
NMR spectroscopy is a powerful tool for the investigation of protein folding and misfolding, providing a characterization of molecular structure, dynamics and exchange processes, across a very wide range of timescales and with near atomic resolution.
