Featured Products
Abscisic acid (Dormin; CAS 21293-29-8) is a plant hormone involved in regulating plant growth, development, and stress responses. Its activity includes mediating seed dormancy, germination control, lateral root formation, and adaptive responses to abiotic stress. Mechanistically, ABA influences histone H2B ubiquitination and chromatin remodeling processes, thereby modulating gene expression during seed maturation and under environmental stress. ABA signaling also alters cellular redox status by enhancing synthesis of antioxidants such as α-tocopherol and L-ascorbate. It is widely utilized in plant biology research to study stress physiology, developmental biology, and epigenetic gene regulation.
