Many plants contain proteins that are capable of inactivating ribosomes and accordingly are
called ribosome‐inactivating proteins or RIPs. These typical plant proteins receive a lot of …

Bacterial chitinases (EC 3.2. 1.14) and chitin-binding proteins (CBPs) play a fundamental
role in the degradation of the ubiquitous biopolymer chitin, and the degradation products …

Ribosome-Inactivating Proteins (RIPs) are enzymes that trigger the catalytic inactivation of
ribosomes and other substrates. They are present in a large number of plants and have …

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. There …

Ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) either single-chain (type 1) or two-chain (type 2) are
frequent in plants, often in multiple forms. They are RNA N-glycosidases, have antiviral …

Ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) are rRNA N-glycosylases from plants (EC 3.2. 2.22)
that inactivate ribosomes thus inhibiting protein synthesis. The antiviral properties of RIPs …

Chitinases are produced by a wide variety of pathogenic and parasitic microbes and
invertebrates during their attack on chitin-containing organisms. Examples discussed …

Many plants contain proteins that are commonly designated as ribosome-inactivating
proteins (RIPs). Based on the structure of the genes and the mature proteins a novel system …

Two novel type I ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) were found in the storage roots of
Mirabilis expansa, an underutilized Andean root crop. The two RIPs, named ME1 and ME2 …

Saporin-6 produced by the plant Saponaria officinalis belongs to the family of single chain
ribosome-inactivating proteins. It potently inhibits protein synthesis in eukaryotic cells, by …
