Ricin is a potent plant toxin which acts by removing a specific adenine, residue from the ribosome. The X-ray crystal structure of a new, tetragonal crystal form of the recombinant ricin A-chain diffracting to, 1.8 A resolution has been determined via molecular replacement methods and, refined to a crystallographic R-factor of 18.6%. The higher resolution, electron density allowed improvements to be made upon previously published, models, resulting in an increase in the assigned secondary structure of, the protein. The enzyme adopts the same global conformation in this, crystal form with differences in detail due only partly to crystal, packing. The active site superimposes closely with those of previously, published models but the locations of the active-site water molecules, differ in ...

== Function ==
 +
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/RICI_RICCO RICI_RICCO] Ricin is highly toxic to animal cells and to a lesser extent to plant cells. The A chain acts as a glycosidase that removes a specific adenine residue from an exposed loop of the 28S rRNA (A4324 in mammals), leading to rRNA breakage. As this loop is involved in elongation factor binding, modified ribosomes are catalytically inactive and unable to support protein synthesis. The A chain can inactivate a few thousand ribosomes per minute, faster than the cell can make new ones. Therefore a single A chain molecule can kill an animal cell. The B chain binds to beta-D-galactopyranoside moieties on cell surface glycoproteins and glycolipids and facilitates the entry into the cell of the A chain; B chains are also responsible for cell agglutination (Lectin activity).
