General description

Ancymidol, a-cyclopropyl-a-(4-methoxyphenyl)-5-pyrimidinemethanol (EL-53 1), a plant growth retardant is a synthetic pyrimidine analogue. It is also a weak fungitoxic.

Application

Ancymidol has been used as the cytochrome P450 inhibitor to study its effects on Cyanidioschyzon merolae strain.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Ancymidol is a pyrimidine-class plant cell endocrine disruptor plant growth regulator that interferes with gibberellin and cellulose biosynthesis.
Ancymidol acts as a monooxygenase inhibitor. It is capable of interrupting gibberellin biosynthesis and growth in plants.

Storage Class

11 - Combustible Solids

Bulbing was studied in shallot plants cultured in vitro. Bulbing occurred under a 16 h photoperiod with fluorescent + incandescent light and 30-50 g 1(-1) sucrose in the culture medium. Exogenous gibberellin (10 microM GA3) inhibited leaf and root growth

Arabidopsis thaliana GAMT1 and GAMT2 encode enzymes that catalyze formation of the methyl esters of gibberellins (GAs). Ectopic expression of GAMT1 or GAMT2 in Arabidopsis, tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum), and petunia (Petunia hybrida) resulted in plants with GA deficiency and typical

Ancymidol, a plant growth regulator, inhibited biosynthesis of diacetoxyscirpenol by Gibberella pulicaris (Fusarium sambucinum) in a defined liquid medium. Ancymidol also inhibited biosynthesis of T-2 toxin by a wild-type strain of Fusarium sporotrichioides and biosynthesis of diacetoxyscirpenol, deacetylated calonectrin, and

In the search for time- and tissue-specific promoters an RNA fingerprinting technique called cDNA-AFLP was used. A transcript derived fragment (TDF511) was isolated which showed high similarity to alcohol dehydrogenases. The gene corresponding to this TDF, named Stgan, is likely

The primary root plays essential roles in root development, nutrient absorption, and root architectural establishment. Primary root growth is generally suppressed by phosphate (P) deficiency in A. thaliana; however, the underlying molecular mechanisms are largely elusive to date. We found
