Anti-tumor activities and apoptotic mechanism of ribosome-inactivating proteins.
Ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) belong to a family of enzymes that attack eukaryotic ribosomes and potently inhibit cellular protein synthesis. RIPs possess several biomedical properties, including anti-viral and anti-tumor activities. Multiple RIPs are known to inhibit tumor cell proliferation through inducing apoptosis in a variety of cancers, such as breast cancer, leukemia/lymphoma, a...
متن کاملComplete amino acid sequence of luffin-b, a ribosome-inactivating protein from sponge gourd (Luffa cylindrica) seeds.
The complete amino acid sequence of luffin-b has been determined. All the twenty-seven tryptic peptides were isolated by reverse-phase HPLC from the tryptic digests of intact luffin-b and one of its CNBr fragments (CB4), and sequenced using the DABITC/PITC double coupling method. The overlap of these peptides was achieved by analyzing the CNBr fragments and their chymotryptic peptides. Luffin-b...
متن کاملRibosome-Inactivating and Related Proteins
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 are also RIPs and RIP related proteins that cannot be grouped into the classical type 1 and type 2 RIPs because of their different sizes, structures or functions. In addition, there is still not a uniform nomenclature ...
متن کاملAmino acid sequences of Euglena viridis ferredoxin and cytochromes c.
The Order Euglenida comprises many species and perhaps 40 genera, but almost all biochemical and genetic studies have been limited to a single species. Euglena gracilis, because of its ease of growth in the laboratory. Sequence studies of chloroplast and mitochondrial proteins from E. gracilis show that they have diverged widely from other eukaryotic lines. In the present paper we report the se...
