IAA Oxidase Inhibitors from Normal and Mutant Maize Plants 1

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

Extracts of maize (Zea mays L.) plants contain substances which, in vitro, inhibit an indoleacetic acid (IAA) oxidase enzyme from maize. The extracts can be freed of inhibitors by dialysis or by passage through columns of polyvinylpyrrolidone powder. Inhibitor-free extracts contain an IAA oxidase enzyme which requires a phenolic co-factor and is stimulated by Mn2+.
