Application

6-(γ,γ-Dimethylallylamino)purine: has been used as a standard in ultra-high performance liquid chromatography to compare the chromatogram of transgenic and wild type (WT) crude hormone extracts to quantify cytokinin levels, may be used as a component of the Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium for callus culture and in vitro shoot induction, may be used as a supplement in MS medium to make simplified shoot induction medium (SIM) to treat explants for shoot induction

Biochem/physiol Actions

6-(γ,γ-Dimethylallylamino)purine (2iP) is a bacteria-derived riboside cytokinin used to grow plant tissues such as tobacco and soybean callus. 2iP is a precursor of the cytokinin Zeatin. 2iP can also be used in Schenk and Hildebrandt medium to support in vitro propagation of micro shoot cultures from shoot tips of Genista plants.

Studies on the effect of post culture liquids of actinomycetes on cytokinin-like substances production by mycorrhizal fungi have revealed that actinomycete metabolites inhibited or stimulated the synthesis of these compounds. The results of chromatographic analyses suggest, that substances stimulating the

A 6-(gamma,gamma-dimethylallylamino) purine-like compound was found in the culture medium of Rhizopogon roseolus, which had been shown earlier to synthesize zeatin. The role of 6-(gamma,gamma-dimethylallylamino) purine as a precursor of zeatin was studied. Rhizopogon was furnished with 6-(gamma,gamma-dimethylallylamino) purine-8-(14)C. Cochromatography

Cytokinins, purine derivatives that act as hormones to control many processes in plants, are very effective at inducing the granulocytic differentiation of human myeloid leukaemia cells. Isopentenyladenine (IPA), a potent cytokinin, significantly induced the expression of CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein (C/EBP)delta, but
