Ricin is a potent toxin found in castor seeds. The A chain, RTA, enzymaticlly depurinates a specific adenosine in ribosomal RNA, inhibiting protein synthesis. Ricin is a known chemical weapons threat having no effective antidote. This makes the discovery of new inhibitors of great importance. We have previously used 6-substituted pterins, such as pteroic acid, as an inhibitor platform with moderate success. We now report the success of 7-carboxy pterin (7CP) as an RTA inhibitor; its binding has been monitored using both kinetic and temperature shift assays and by X-ray crystallography. We also discuss the synthesis of various derivatives of 7CP, and their binding affinity and inhibitory effects, as part of a program to make effective RTA inhibitors.

Function

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).
