General annotation (Comments)

Function

The A chain is responsible for inhibiting protein synthesis through the catalytic inactivation of 60S ribosomal subunits by removing adenine from position 4,324 of 28S rRNA. The B chain binds to cell receptors and probably facilitates the entry into the cell of the A chain; B chains are also responsible for cell agglutination (lectin activity). Inhibits growth of the human tumor cell line Molt4. Ref.1 Ref.2 Ref.4

Catalytic activity

Endohydrolysis of the N-glycosidic bond at one specific adenosine on the 28S rRNA.

Subunit structure

Disulfide-linked dimer of A and B chains. Ref.8

Post-translational modification

The A chain of variant MLA' is not glycosylated. Ref.8

Pharmaceutical use

Due to its immunomodulative effects it is being studied in clinical trials in cancer patients as it may slow the growth of cancer cells and be an effective treatment for solid tumors.

Miscellaneous

Several isoforms exist.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the ribosome-inactivating protein family. Type 2 RIP subfamily.

Contains 2 ricin B-type lectin domains.
