The role of impaired toxin uptake in conferring cellular resistance t o the plant toxin RCAII (ricin) has been examined using a murine BW5 147 lymphoma line and a toxin-resistant variant (BW5 147RicR.3) selected by repeated exposure t o RCAII. The toxin-resistant variant is 250 times more resistant

The toxic lectin modeccin, which inhibits protein synthesis in eukaryotic cells, is cleaved upon treatment with 2-mercaptoethanol into two peptide chains which move in polyacrylamide gels at rates corresponding to molecular weights 28,000 and 38,000. After reduction, the toxin loses its effect on ce
