Abstract excerpt
The molecular action of ricin A chain involves cleavage of the N-glycosidic bond between ribose and the adenine 4324 nucleotides from the 5' end of mammalian 28 S rRNA (Endo, Y., and Tsurugi, K. (1987) J. Biol. Chem. 262, 8128-8130). In this paper, four ricin- and abrin-resistant Chinese hamster ovary cell mutants that possess ribosomes resistant to this N-glycosidase action are described. Three of the mutant...
