Characterization of an Arabidopsis enzyme family that conjugates amino acids to indole-3-acetic acid.
Substantial evidence indicates that amino acid conjugates of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) function in auxin homeostasis, yet the plant enzymes involved in their biosynthesis have not been identified. We tested whether several Arabidopsis thaliana enzymes that are related to the auxin-induced soybean (Glycine max) GH3 gene product synthesize IAA-amino acid conjugates. In vitro reactions with six r...
متن کاملMetabolism of Indole-3-acetic Acid: IV. Biological Properties of Amino Acid Conjugates.
The biological activity of 20 l-alpha-amino acid conjugates of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) to stimulate cell elongation of Avena sativa coleoptile sections and to stimulate growth of soybean cotyledon tissue cultures has been examined at concentrations of 10(-4) to 10(-7)m. In the Avena coleoptile test, most of the amino acid conjugates stimulated elongation. Several of the conjugates stimulated...
متن کاملOxidation of indole-3-acetic Acid-amino Acid conjugates by horseradish peroxidase.
The stability of 21 amino acid conjugates of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) toward horseradish peroxidase (HRP) was studied. The IAA conjugates of Arg, Ile, Leu, Tyr, and Val were oxidized readily by peroxidase. Those of Ala, beta-Ala, Asp, Cys, Gln, Glu, Gly, and Lys were not degraded and their recovery was above 92% after 1 hour incubation with HRP. A correlation between the stability of IAA conj...
متن کاملOxidation of indole-3-acetic acid to oxindole-3-acetic acid by an enzyme preparation from Zea mays.
Indole-3-acetic acid is oxidized to oxindole-3-acetic acid by Zea mays tissue extracts. Shoot, root, and endosperm tissues have enzyme activities of 1 to 10 picomoles per hour per milligram protein. The enzyme is heat labile, is soluble, and requires oxygen for activity. Cofactors of mixed function oxygenase, peroxidase, and intermolecular dioxygenase are not stimulatory to enzymic activity....
متن کاملQuantitative analysis of indole-3-acetic acid metabolites in Arabidopsis.
A general gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (MS)-based screen was performed to identify catabolites and conjugates of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) during vegetative growth of Arabidopsis. This experiment revealed the existence of two new conjugates: N-(indole-3-acetyl)-alfa-alanine (IA-Ala) and N-(indole-3-acetyl)-alfa-leucine (IA-Leu). A method for quantitative analysis of IAA metabolites in ...
