Abstract

Many plants produce toxic proteins capable of inactivating eukaryotic ribosomes and thereby arresting protein synthesis. In certain plants the gene for a ribosome-inactivating protein has fused with a gene encoding an independent sugar-binding polypeptide to generate heterodimeric proteins which are among the most potent cytotoxins known.
