MAP 30 and GAP 31 are plant proteins isolated from Momordica charantia and Gelonium multiflorum, respectively. They have recently been shown to inhibit HIV-1 infection and replication. These proteins also possess a novel DNA topoisomerase-poison-like activity as well as ribosome inactivation. They
GAP31 (Gelonium protein of 31 kDa) and MAP30 (Momordica protein of 30 kDa) are agents isolated from the medicinal plants Gelonium multiflorum and Momordica charantia, respectively. The current study was conducted to investigate the efficacy of GAP31 and MAP30 on estrogen-independent and highly
Gelonin from the Indian plant Gelonium multiflorum belongs to the type I ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs). Like other members of RIPs, this toxin glycoprotein inhibits protein synthesis of eukaryotic cells; hence, it is largely used in the construction of immunotoxins composed of
GAP 31 is an anti-HIV plant protein that we have identified and purified to homogeneity from Gelonium multiflorum. It is the first reported example of an anti-HIV agent capable of acting against multiple stages of the viral life cycle, on viral infection and viral replication. GAP 31 is a unique
Since it was discovered as the first human tumor virus in 1964, Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) is now implicated in several types of malignancies. Accordingly, certain aspects of EBV pathobiology have shown promise in anti-cancer research in developing virus-targeting methods for EBV-associated cancers.
