Brassinosteroid signaling in plants
Trends in Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2001In animals and humans, steroid hormones (SHs) regulate gene transcription via the binding of nuclear receptors. In addition, rapid nongenomic effects of steroids occur and appear to be mediated by plasma-membrane receptors. Plants also use steroids as signaling molecules. These brassinosteroids (BRs) show structural similarity to the SHs of vertebrates

Benefits of brassinosteroid crosstalk
Trends in Plant Science, 2012Brassinosteroids (BRs) are a group of phytohormones that regulate various biological processes in plants. Interactions and crosstalk between BRs and other plant hormones control a broad spectrum of physiological and developmental processes. In this review, we examine recent findings which indicate that BR signaling components mainly interact with the ...

Plants grow on brassinosteroids
Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2011Brassinosteroids (BRs) are plant steroid hormones known mainly for promoting organ growth through their combined effect on cell expansion and division. In addition, BRs regulate a broad spectrum of plant developmental and physiological responses, including plant architecture, vascular differentiation, male fertility, flowering, senescence ...

Brassinosteroids in Arabidopsis thaliana
Phytochemistry, 1998From the seeds and siliques of Arabidopsis thaliana, six brassinosteroids, brassinolide, castasterone, typhasterol, 6-deoxocastasterone, 6-deoxotyphasterol and 6-deoxoteasterone, were identified by GC-mass spectrometry or GC-selected ion monitoring. As the occurrence of castasterone, typhasterol, 6-deoxocastasterone and 6-deoxotyphasterol in the shoots

Brassinosteroid Signaling Pathway
Science's STKE, 2006Plant growth is regulated by an intricate network of hormonal signaling pathways. These small-molecule hormones cause changes in gene expression that are associated with cell expansion and division and changes in development. Paradoxically, six of these hormones appear to have largely overlapping functions, yet the loss of response to any ...

Regulation of brassinosteroid signaling
Trends in Plant Science, 2007Both animal and plant steroids mainly rely on transcriptional factors to bring about specific physiological responses; however, the signaling mechanisms that regulate these transcriptional factors are different. Steroid binding inside an animal cell directly alters the transcriptional activity of intracellular steroid receptors, whereas brassinosteroid

Metabolism of brassinosteroids in plants
Plant Physiology and Biochemistry, 2007Brassinosteroids represent a class of plant hormones. More than 70 compounds have been isolated from plants. Currently 42 brassinosteroid metabolites and their conjugates are known. This review describes the miscellaneous metabolic pathways of brassinosteroids in plants.
