• Synonyms: N-(3-Indolylacetyl)-L-phenylalanine, N-(3-Indoleacetyl)-L-phenylalanine, N-(1H-indol-3-ylacetyl)-L-phenylalanine, N-(1H-indol-3-ylacetyl)phenylalanine, N-3-indoleacetal-L-phenylalanine

Description

Indole-3-acetyl-L-phenylalanine is a plant growth regulator that inhibits the transport of auxin in the plant. It is used as a regulatory agent to inhibit the growth of plants by interfering with their natural regulatory mechanisms. Indole-3-acetyl-L-phenylalanine is an effective inhibitor of auxin transport and has been shown to have an inhibitory effect on plant growth. This compound also binds to acid conjugates, which are found in plants, and blocks their ability to bind to auxin receptors, preventing them from activating the cell's responses. This inhibition leads to decreased cell division and reduced root growth.
