Identification and cloning of ribosome inactivating protein (RIP) genes in Jatropha pandurifolia Andr. and Jatropha podagrica Hook.
Ribosome-inactivating proteins inhibit protein synthesis in eukaryotes by catalytically damaging ribosomes and have been proven to have antiviral and antitumour activity because it can truncate the translation of viral coat proteins. The presence of RIP genes in Jatropha pandorofolia Andr., Jatroph...
