The species from the genus Phytolacca constitute one of the best sources of ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) that have been used both in the therapy against virus and tumors and in the construction of transgenic plants resistant to virus, bacteria, fungi and insects. Here we investigate new activities of three representative RIPs from Phytolacca dioica (dioicin 2, PD-S2 and PD-L4).The three RIPs...
Main conclusionThe ribosome inactivating protein BE27 displays several biological activities in vitrothat could result in a broad action against several types of pathogens. Beetin 27 (BE27), a ribosome-inactivating protein (RIP) from sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) leaves, is an antiviral protein induced by virus and signaling compounds such as hydrogen peroxide and salicylic acid. Its role as...
