Engineering of Ribosome-inactivating Proteins for Improving Pharmacological Properties
Toxins, 2020 Ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) are N-glycosidases, which depurinate a specific adenine residue in the conserved α-sarcin/ricin loop (α-SRL) of rRNA.

Ribosome-Inactivating and Related Proteins
Toxins, 2015 Ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) are toxins that act as N-glycosidases (EC 3.2.2.22). They are mainly produced by plants and classified as type 1 RIPs and type 2 RIPs.

SINE jumping contributes to large-scale polymorphisms in the pig genomes
Mobile DNA, 2021 Background Molecular markers based on retrotransposon insertion polymorphisms (RIPs) have been developed and are widely used in plants and animals. Short interspersed nuclear elements (SINEs) exert wide impacts on gene activity and even on phenotypes ...

Evolution of plant ribosome-inactivating proteins [PDF]
, 2010 This contribution presents an updated analysis of the evolution of ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) in plants. All evidence suggests that an ancestor of modern seed plants developed the RIP domain at least 300 million years ago.

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018 Ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) are toxic N-glycosidases that depurinate eukaryotic and prokaryotic rRNAs, thereby arresting protein synthesis during translation. RIPs are widely found in various plant species and within different tissues.

Covert Contraceptive Use amongst the urban poor in Accra, Ghana: experiences of health providers
Reproductive Health, 2022 Plain Language summary Sometimes women use contraceptives without the knowledge of their sexual partners. That is to say, they hide their contraceptive use. Many studies have explored why women hide their contraceptive use.

Dietary-derived vitamin B12 protects Caenorhabditis elegans from thiol-reducing agents
BMC Biology, 2022 Background One-carbon metabolism, which includes the folate and methionine cycles, involves the transfer of methyl groups which are then utilised as a part of multiple physiological processes including redox defence.

Kirkiin: A New Toxic Type 2 Ribosome-Inactivating Protein from the Caudex of Adenia kirkii
Toxins, 2021 Ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) are plant toxins that irreversibly damage ribosomes and other substrates, thus causing cell death. RIPs are classified in type 1 RIPs, single-chain enzymatic proteins, and type 2 RIPs, consisting of active A chains ...
