Arylalkylamine N-acetyltransferase (AANAT) is a pivotal enzyme in melatonin biosynthesis that catalyzes the conversion of serotonin to N-acetylserotonin. Homologs of animal AANAT genes are present in animals, but not in plants. An AANAT homolog was found

Studies on Biosynthesis of Brassinosteroids
Biosynthesis of steroidal plant hormones, brassinosteroids, was studied using the cell culture system of Catharanthus roseus. Feeding labeled compounds of possible intermediates to the cultured cells, followed by analyzing the metabolites by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry disclosed the pathways from a plant sterol, campesterol, to brassinolide ...

Role of Brassinosteroids in plant growth promotion and stress tolerance during priming mediated by beneficial bacteria [PDF]
Brassinosteroids (BR) are plant hormones widely distributed throughout the plant kingdom in low concentrations and with structural homology to animal and insect steroids.

Brassinosteroids in plant developmental biology and stress tolerance
Modern crop production uses a large suite of agricultural agents that increases plant productivity both under optimal growth and stress conditions. Most of these agents are of artificial origin; many of them are toxic and are pollutants of agricultural ...

Brassinosteroids tailor stomatal production to different environments [PDF]
Two recent reports show that brassinosteroids control stomata production by regulating the GSK3-like kinase BIN2-mediated phosphorylation of two different stomatal signalling components resulting in opposite stomatal phenotypes.

Color and other quality parameters of “Redglobe” grape (Vitis vinifera L.) berries were evaluated after treatment with brassinosteroid (BR) analogs. Three BRs analogs (24-epibrassinolide, Triol, or Lactone) were applied at three concentrations (0.0, 0.4,
