Description:L-Abrine is a plant toxin that belongs to the group of abrinoids. It is a chiral molecule and can exist as an L-form or D-form. The L-form is used in some analytical methods, such as gas chromatography, while the D-form is used in medical purposes. L-Abrine has been shown to have anti-HIV effects by inhibiting reverse transcriptase and deoxyribonuclease activity. It has also been shown to inhibit colony stimulating factor production and decrease bacterial growth in vitro. L-Abrine inhibits the replication of bacteria by binding to adenylate cyclase and blocking the enzyme's ability to synthesize cAMP from ATP. This inhibition prevents protein synthesis, leading to cell death.
