Ribosome-inactivating proteins and their immunotoxins for cancer therapy: insights into the mechanism of cell death
Ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) are a family of plant toxic enzymes that permanently damage ribosomes and possibly other cellular substrates, thus causing cell death involving different and still not completely understood pathways. The high cytotoxic activity showed by many RIPs makes them ide...
