Ricin A-chain can inactivate eukaryotic ribosomes, but exhibits no N-glycosidase activity on intact E. coli ribosomes. In the present research, in order to avoid using radiolabeled oligoribonucleotides, two kinds of synthetic 5′-FAM fluorescence-labeled oligoribonucleotide substrates were used to mimic the sarcin/ricin domains of rat 28S rRNA and E. coli 23S rRNA (32mer and 25mer, named as Rat FAM-SRD...
