Ethephon (2-Chloroethylphosphonic acid), a widely used plant growth regulator that induces scenescence and fruiting may be used to study its properties as a plant growth regulator, phosphorylating agent and as a butyrylcholinesterase inhibitor. Ethephon may be used as a reference compound in procedures designed to detect ethephon in biological materials.

Butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) is inhibited by the plant growth regulator (2-chloroethyl)phosphonic acid (ethephon) as observed 25 years ago both in vitro and in vivo in rats and mice and more recently in subchronic studies at low doses with human subjects. The
Bacillus subtilis CLP extract activates defense gene expression and increases the unique protein production involving in pathways of ISR, SAR, ubiquitin-proteasome system, and glycolysis for stress responses in flavedo tissues. Cyclic lipopeptides (CLPs) of Bacillus subtilis ABS-S14 had ability to

Ethephon [(2-chloroethyl)phosphonic acid] has two seemingly unrelated types of biological activity. It is a major agrochemical absorbed by crops, slowly releasing ethylene as a plant growth regulator. Ethephon also inhibits the activity of plasma butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) in humans, dogs, rats

The plant growth regulator ethephon (2-chloroethylphosphonic acid) inhibits human butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) by making a covalent adduct on the active site serine 198. Our goal was to extend earlier studies on ethephon inhibition. Addition of freshly prepared ethephon to BChE in

MYC2 transcription factor is a key component of the core module COI1-JAZ-MYC2 of jasmonate signaling in Arabidopsis, but the MYC transcription factor (s) associated with jasmonate signaling in jasmonate-responsive laticifer cells remains to be identified. Two full-length cDNAs, designated HblMYC1
