Metazoan Ribosome Inactivating Protein encoding genes acquired by Horizontal Gene Transfer
Abstract Ribosome inactivating proteins (RIPs) are RNA N-glycosidases that depurinate a specific adenine residue in the conserved sarcin/ricin loop of 28S rRNA. These enzymes are widely distributed among plants and their presence has also been confirmed in several bacterial species. Recently, we rep...
