Int. J. Mol. Sci.2021, 22(21), 11598;https://doi.org/10.3390/ijms222111598

27 October 2021

Ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) hydrolyze the N-glycosidic bond and depurinate a specific adenine residue (A-4324 in rat 28S ribosomal RNA, rRNA) in the conserved α-sarcin/ricin loop (α-SRL) of rRNA. In this study, we have purified and characte...
