UniProt functional annotation for P22244

UniProt code: P22244.

Organism: Hordeum vulgare (Barley).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Viridiplantae; Streptophyta; Embryophyta; Tracheophyta; Spermatophyta; Magnoliopsida; Liliopsida; Poales; Poaceae; BOP clade; Pooideae; Triticodae; Triticeae; Hordeinae; Hordeum.
 
Function: Inhibits the elongation phase of protein synthesis. It inactivates fungal ribosomes even more effectively than mammalian ribosomes and is thought to function as a constitutive antifungal agent in plants.
 
Catalytic activity: Reaction=Endohydrolysis of the N-glycosidic bond at one specific adenosine on the 28S rRNA.; EC=3.2.2.22;
Subcellular location: Cytoplasm. Note=Starchy endosperm of mature seeds.
Miscellaneous: Three similar RIP 30 isoforms I, II, and III have been described in Barley.
Similarity: Belongs to the ribosome-inactivating protein family. Type 1 RIP subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
