Cytokinins in plants are crucial for numerous biological processes, including seed germination, cell division and differentiation, floral initiation and adaptation to abiotic stresses. The salt stress can promote reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in plants which are highly toxic and

Carbon availability is a major regulatory factor in plant growth and development. Cytokinins, plant hormones that play important roles in various aspects of growth and development, have been implicated in the carbon-dependent regulation of plant growth; however, the details of their involvement

Upon Agrobacterium tumefaciens infection of a host plant, Tumor morphology root (Tmr) a bacterial adenosine phosphate-isopentenyltransferase (IPT), creates a metabolic bypass in the plastid for direct synthesis of trans-zeatin (tZ) with 1-hydroxy-2-methyl-2-(E)-butenyl 4-diphosphate as the prenyl

Cytokinins regulate cell division and differentiation as well as a number of other processes implicated in plant development. The first step of cytokinin biosynthesis in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) is catalyzed by adenosine phosphate-isopentenyltransferases (AtIPT). The enzymes are localized

Cytokinins (CKs) are a group of phytohormones that play a crucial role in the regulation of plant growth and development. Identification of the enzymes and the corresponding genes that are involved in CK metabolism allowed us to understand how plants synthesize CKs and adjust CK activity to optimal

Branched-chain amino acid transaminases (BCATs) play a crucial role in the metabolic pathway of leucine, isoleucine and valine by catalyzing the last step of synthesis and/or the initial step of degradation of these amino acids. In this study, we characterized a new BCAT from Nicotiana benthamiana

We analyzed the spatial expression pattern of Arabidopsis thaliana adenosine phosphates-isopentenyltransferase genes (AtIPT1, AtIPT3 to AtIPT8) and the effect of inorganic nitrogen sources on their regulation. In mature plants, the AtIPTs were differentially expressed in various tissues including
