The metabolism and biological activity of a 9-substituted cytokinin.
نویسندگان
چکیده
In order to test the metabolic stability of 9-substituted cytokinins, 6-benzylamino-9-methyl purine has been synthesized and labeled with (14)C in the 9-methyl carbon or doubly labeled with (14)C in the 9-methyl carbon and (3)H in the methylene moiety of the side chain. Although the 6-benzylamino-9-methylpurine is chemically stable, cytokinin-requiring tissues begin removing the 9-substituent in as little as 10 minutes. Among the various metabolic products is free benzylaminopurine. Thus, the biological activity of 9-substituted cytokinins could be accounted for by their conversion to the free base.

A series of angiotensin II (A II) receptor antagonist of some substituted 5-(biphenyl-4-ylmethyl) pyrazole were subjected to QSAR analysis using Hansch and Fujita-Ban model, by using combination of thermodynamic, electronic, spatial descriptor and presence or absence of substituent respectively. Several QSAR model were obtained using stepwise regression analysis. Two models from both the ...

BACKGROUND When applied to a nutrition solution or agar media, the non-substituted aromatic cytokinins caused thickening and shortening of the primary root, had an inhibitory effect on lateral root branching, and even showed some negative effects on development of the aerial part at as low as a 10 nanomolar concentration. Novel analogues of aromatic cytokinins ranking among topolins substituted...
