Application
Restrictocin from Aspergillus restrictus is used to inhibit protein synthesis. It may be useful as a component of immunotoxins . Product R0389 is provided as a lyophilized powder.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Restrictocin from Aspergillus restrictus is a ribosome-inactivating protein that acts by specifically cleaving rRNA. Approximately 70% of the protein is active restrictocin. Restrictocin shares a high degree of amino acid sequence homology with mitogillin, a ribotoxin that cleaves a single phosphodiester bond of the 29S rRNA of eukaryotic ribosomes . Restrictocin is thought to be activated during the process of secretion .

A series of contiguous deletions were made in a cDNA encoding the ribonuclease restrictocin with the purpose of identifying the amino acids that are essential for the cleavage of the phosphodiester bond on the 3' side of G4325 in the

Restrictocin and related fungal endoribonucleases from the α-sarcin family site-specifically cleave the sarcin/ricin loop (SRL) on the ribosome to inhibit translation and ultimately trigger cell death. Previous studies showed that the SRL folds into a bulged-G motif and tetraloop, with

Restrictocin is a 149 amino acid ribonucleolytic toxin produced by the fungus Aspergillus, which specifically cleaves a single phosphodiester bond within 28S rRNA resulting in a potent inhibition of protein synthesis in eukaryotic cells. Restrictocin has 12 prolines out of

We describe the cloning and characterization of the gene coding for the ribotoxin restrictocin, from Aspergillus restrictus (gene res, EMBL accession Number X56176). This toxin is a potent inhibitor of protein synthesis in eucaryotes and is of potential interest as

Although secreted proteins of pathogenic microorganisms often represent potential virulence factors, so far only limited information has been available on the proteins secreted by Aspergillus fumigatus. We therefore analysed supernatant proteins after growth in different media. In serum-free cell culture
