CAS: 1637-39-4
Formulation: 98%TC
Chemical Name/IUPAC Name: (E)-2-methyl-4-(7H-purin-6-ylamino)but-2-en-1-ol
Chemical Formula: C10H13N5O
Molecular Weight: 219.24
Physical and Chemical Properties
The Melting point of pure zeatin is 209-213℃. It can be dissolve in methanol, ethanol, not soluble in water and acetone. Stable at
room temperature.
Mechanism
1. Zeatin has a high affinity and specificity with cytoplasmic receptors, and the receptor conjugate can promote the activity before RNA polymerization, and at the same time improve the transcription of ribosomal RNA and protein-coding genes;
2. Zeatin has a high affinity and specificity with plasma membrane receptors, and the receptor conjugate can stimulate a series of
signal transmission systems to induce cell metabolism and produce physiological responses
Function and characteristic
Zeatin is a new industrialized cytokinin substance in recent years. It was originally a cell division promoting
substance similar to kinetin isolated from immature corn kernels, so it was named zeatin ( ZT)
☆A plant endogenous substance with strong activity and good conductivity;
☆The activity of trans-zeatin is better than that of cis-zeatin;
☆Chemical synthesis, clearstructure, stable source;
☆Used in different periods, the effects are different: promote seed and bud germination; promote transpiration and stomata opening, adjust nutrient absorption; improve photosynthesis, promote grain development; promote flower bud formation and flowering; promote fruit setting, preserve flowers and preserve fruit; promote fruit expansion, Induce tuber formation; delay chlorophyll degradation and promote preservation.
