Attempts to develop effective anticancer agents are restricted by a single major constraint, the similarity between cancer cells and normal cells. Cancer cells [Pg.1]

Ricin is exclusively present in the endosperm cells of the seeds of the castor oil (Ricinus communis) plant [2,3]. Mature seeds contain maximum ricin concentration, the toxin being actively synthesized during later stages of seed [Pg.2]

Ricin and RCA are closely related proteins. It has been established for some time that antisera raised against individual ricin A or B chains cross-react with the corresponding RCA chains and vice versa [16-18], Peptide fingerprinting [Pg.3]
