Use of Chemo-Informatics to Identify Molecular Descriptors of Auxins, Cytokinins and Gibberellins

Author(s):

Ivan Andújar, Daviel Gomez, Lianny Perez and Jose Carlos Lorenzo

We have identified those molecular descriptors differentiating four auxins, four cytokinins and four gibberellins. DRAGON software (version 5.5, 2007) and CambridgeSoft ChemOffice (version 12, 2010) including ChemDraw and Chem3D were used to calculate 212 molecular descriptors. Only 49 descriptors showed statistically significant differences among auxins, cytokinins and gibberellins. Of them, the most important differences can be described as follows. Gibberellins contain terminal tertiary C (sp3), terminal quaternary C (sp3), ring secondary C (sp3), ring tertiary C (sp3), and ring quaternary C (sp3) that are not present either in cytokinins or auxins. Gibberellins are also relatively rich in terminal secondary C (sp3) and 10-membered rings which are absent in cytokinins. Cytokinins hav... view more»
