Viscum

Ribosome inactivating cytotoxic protein that irreversibly inhibits protein synthesis in cells, causing cell death. It is a solid obtained from the mistletoe plant (Viscum album). [Pg.484]

Figure 3 Comparison of several thionins reveals their structural similarity. The structures are color coded for their secondary structure, cyan a-helix, red /3-strand, magenta random coil/turn. (a) a-Purothionin (2plh) and (b) /3-purothionin (1 bhp) have four disulfide bonds, (c) Crambin (1 ejg) has three disulfide bonds. Despite its thionin fold it lacks antimicrobial or other toxic activity, (d) An overlay of crambin (1ejg, black), a-purothionin (2plh, red), /3-purothionin (1 bhp, orange), viscotoxin A3 (ledO, magenta), and viscotoxin B (Ijmp, cyan) from Viscum album reveals the conserved structure of the peptide backbone.

Certain flavonoids are used by plants to protect them from invasion by parasites. For example, poplar (Populus spp.) cultivars produce a chemical barrier to parasitization by mistletoe (Viscum album).Resistant poplar cultivars were significantly higher in flavonols and flavones compared to susceptible cultivars. Likewise, in Streblus asper the bark and wood of trees that are resistant to the parasite Cuscuta reflexa hold higher levels of flavonoids, as well as steroids and alkaloids. [Pg.422]
