| 3-Indoleacrylic acid Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | light yellow to yellow-beige crystalline powder | | Uses | 3-Indoleacrylic acid has been used in the induction of ribokinase expression in E. coli. | | Synthesis Reference(s) | Synthesis, p. 236, 1984 DOI: 10.1055/s-1984-30787 | | General Description | 3-Indoleacrylic acid (IAA) is a chemical used for the induction of gene transcription. This expression system requires that the gene of interest is cloned in plasmids containing the trpE promoter. | | Biochem/physiol Actions | 3-Indoleacrylic acid helps to block the mycelial growth of?Neurospora crassa. As a result, the cells accumulate indoleglycerol phosphate, which influences the rate of tryptophan synthetase. | | Purification Methods | Recrystallise the acid from AcOH, H2O or EtOAc/cyclohexane. UV in MeOH has at 225, 274 and 325nm. [Shaw et al. J Org Chem 23 1171 1958, constitution: Rappe Acta max Chem Scand 18 818 1964, Moffatt J Chem Soc 1442 1957, Kimming et al.
