Product Data Sheet

24-Epicastasterone

Catalog No. A94991

main product photo
24-Epicastasterone is a bioactive brassinosteroid that functions as a ligand for the ABCB1 and ABCB19 transporters in Arabidopsis thaliana. Its primary mechanisms include stimulating ATPase activity in ABCB19 and promoting ATP hydrolysis in ABCB1, facilitating the efflux of compounds from plant cells. Additionally, 24-Epicastasterone enhances the activities of catalase and guaiacol peroxidase in wheat roots, thereby mitigating heat-induced lipid peroxidation and improving heat tolerance in common wheat seedlings. This compound is valuable for research into plant stress responses and hormonal signaling pathways.
