Target: Ricin

Abstract: Ricin Products

Synonyms: ricin antibody, LOC8261245 antibody

Background: Ricin is a protein found in castor bean (Ricinus communis) acting as protein synthesis inhibitor. It is a toxin involved in plant defence. A chain of ricin can inactivate few thousands of ribosomes per minute. B chain facilitates the entry of A chain into the cell.

Molecular Weight: 29.8 kDa
