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 been found also in… Expand
2.8‐Å crystal structure of a nontoxic type‐II ribosome‐inactivating protein, ebulin l
Ebulin l is a type‐II ribosome‐inactivating protein (RIP) isolated from the leaves of Sambucus ebulus L. As with other type‐II RIP, ebulin is a disulfide‐linked heterodimer composed of a toxic A… Expand
Enzymatic activity of toxic and non‐toxic type 2 ribosome‐inactivating proteins

- FEBS letters
- 9 April 2004
Ribosome‐inactivating proteins (RIPs) display adenine polynucleotide glycosylase activity on different nucleic acid substrates, which at the ribosomal level is responsible for the arrest of protein… Expand
Elderberry (Sambucus nigra) bark contains two structurally different Neu5Ac(alpha2,6)Gal/GalNAc-binding type 2 ribosome-inactivating proteins.

- 1 May 1997
A second NeuAc(alpha2,6)Gal/GalNAc binding type 2 ribosome-inactivating protein (RIP), called SNAI' has been isolated from elderberry (Sambucus nigra) bark. SNAI' is a minor bark protein which… Expand
Probiotic Lactic Acid Bacteria: A Review
Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) play a critical role in food production and health maintenance. There is an increasing interest in these species to reveal the many possible health benefits associated with… Expand

- FEBS letters
- 22 May 1998
Two novel highly basic type 1 (single chain) ribosome‐inactivating proteins (RIPs) with N‐glycosidase activity have been found in elderberries (the fruits of Sambucus nigra L.). Mass spectrometry of… Expand

- The Journal of biological chemistry
- 25 August 1993
A novel type 2 ribosome-inactivating protein (RIP) that we named ebulin 1 has been isolated from leaves of Sambucus ebulus L. (Caprifoliaceae). In vitro ebulin 1 strongly inhibited protein synthesis… Expand
Distribution and properties of major ribosome-inactivating proteins (28 S rRNA N-glycosidases) of the plant Saponaria officinalis L. (Caryophyllaceae).
