RNAi Screening of Drosophila (Sophophora) melanogaster S2 Cells for Ricin Sensitivity and Resistance

The ribosome-inhibiting toxin ricin binds exposed β1→4 linked galactosyls on multiple glycolipids and glycoproteins on the cell surface of most eukaryotic cells. After endocytosis, internal cell trafficking is promiscuous, with only a small proportion of ricin proceeding down a productive (cytotoxic...
