http://purl.uniprot.org/citations/18222123http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#comment"Ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs, EC 3.2.2.22) are plant enzymes that can inhibit the translation process by removing single adenine residues of the large rRNA. These enzymes are known to function in defense against pathogens, but their biological role is unknown, partly due to the absence of work on RIPs in a model plant. In this study, we purified a protein showing RIP activity from Arabidopsis thaliana by employing chromatography separations coupled with an enzymatic activity. Based on N-terminal and internal amino acid sequencing, the RIP purified was identified as a mature form of pectin methylesterase (PME, At1g11580). The purified native protein showed both PME and RIP activity. PME catalyzes pectin deesterification, releasing acid pectin and methanol, which cause cell wall changes. We expressed the full-length and mature form of cDNA clones into an expression vector and transformed it in Escherichia coli for protein expression. The recombinant PME proteins (full-length and mature) expressed in E. coli did not show either PME or RIP activity, suggesting that post-translational modifications are important for these enzymatic activities. This study demonstrates a new function for an old enzyme identified in a model plant and discusses the possible role of a protein's conformational changes corresponding to its dual enzymatic activity."xsd:string
