Abstract excerpt
The pokeweed antiviral protein is a ribosome inactivating protein acting on eukaryotic as well as on prokaryotic ribosomes thus is toxic for both cell types. Using the PCR technique to clone the PAP open reading frame, we characterized two cDNAs coding for proteins inhibiting eukaryotic translati...
