CAS No: 1637-39-4
Name: trans-Zeatin
Cat No: R013637
trans-Zeatin
is a member of the plant hormone family known as ‘cytokinins’, which regulate
cell division, development, and nutrient processing.
The
biosynthesis of cytokinins involves isoprenylation of ATP or ADP, with
trans-Zeatin being produced by the removal of phosphate and riboside groups
from adenine and oxidation by cytochrome P735A. trans-Zeatin
evokes its effects through high affinity receptors, including Arabidopsis
histidine kinases (AHK). The affinity of trans-zeatin for AHK3, which is
important in mediating plant development, has been reported to be 1.3 nM.
