Curcin C, a novel type I ribosome-inactivating protein from the post-germinating cotyledons of Jatropha curcas.
Amino Acids 2017 September
A novel type I ribosome-inactivating protein (RIP), designated as curcin C, was purified from Jatropha curcas, an important feedback source of bio-fuel. Molecular mass and isoelectric point of curcin C were 31.398 kDa and 7.12 as detected by MALTI-TOF assay and capillary electrophoresis assay, respectively. N-terminal sequence and LC-MS/MS analyses confirmed that curcin C is a type I RIP having high homology, but not the exactly the same with curcin, another type 1 RIP isolated from the endosperm of J. curcas. It exhibited N-glycosidase activity and in vitro translation inhibition activity. Moreover, curcin C displayed a strong selectively anti-tumor activity on human cancer cells. Its cytotoxicity against osteosarcoma cell line U20S is even higher than that of Paclitaxel with IC50 of 0.019 μM. Purification and identification of curcin C not only suggested its potential in natural anticancer drug development, but also provide chance to understanding different cytotoxic action among different RIPs.
