Abscisic acid(ABA)
Chemical name: Abscisic acid(ABA)
CAS No.: 14375-45-2
Specification: 90%TC, 5%WSG, 20%WSG, 0.1%SL, 0.25%SL, 5%SL, 10%SL
Molecular formula: C15H20O4
Structural formula:
Mode of action:
Abscisic acid plays a role in controlling nucleic acid and protein synthesis. Abscisic acid inhibits α-amylase synthesis in barley grains and antagonizes gibberellin in the process. The inhibition of enzyme synthesis is similar to that produced by the inhibitors of RNA synthesis, 8-azo-guanine and 6-methylpurine, suggesting that abscisic acid may act by inhibiting the synthesis of RNA that determines the structure of alpha-amylase, or by preventing RNA from binding to active enzyme units. Abscisic acid inhibits RNA synthesis in dandelion leaves, while DNA synthesis is inhibited in algae.
Uses:
Abscisic acid is a growth-inhibiting plant hormone named for its ability to cause leaves to fall off. May be widely distributed in higher plants. Besides promoting leaf shedding, there are other functions, such as inducing buds to enter a dormant state and inducing potatoes to form tubers. It also has an inhibitory effect on cell elongation.
