Ribosome inactivating proteins (RIPs) are plant proteins with enzymatic activity identified as rRNA N-glycosidase (EC 3.2.2.22), which cleaves the N-glycosidic bond of a specific adenine on the ricin/sarcin region of rRNA, thus causing inhibition of

Composites of beta-chitin with calcium carbonate polymorphs were prepared by precipitation of the mineral into a chitin scaffold by means of a double diffusion system. The beta-chitin was obtained from the pen of the Loligo sp. squid. The three main
