Cinnamomin is a type II ribosome-inactivating protein (RIP) and its A-chain (
CTA
) is a RNA N-glycosidase. It is observed that modification of tyrosine residues by N-acetylimidazole (N-AI) causes almost complete loss of
CTA
activity. Adenine partially protects tyrosine residues from modification by N-AI. It is proposed that tyrosine residues are involved in the active site of
CTA
and they are crucial in recognition and binding of ribosomal RNA. Tryptophan residues of
CTA
are also studied by
NBS
modification.
