DIMBOA-Glc
DIMBOA-Glc is a benzoxazinoid glucoside insecticide that exists in two epimeric forms. DIMBOA-Glc helps enhance the resistance of maize to lepidopteran larvae. When plant cells rupture, plant-derived (2R)-DIMBOA-Glc interacts with glucosidases and undergoes hydrolysis to produce toxic DIMBOA for defense against infestation. The accumulation process of DIMBOA-Glc is negatively regulated by ZmMPK6 and the ethylene signaling pathway. DIMBOA-Glc does not react with plant glucosidases and can act as a detoxification metabolite to help insects counter plant defenses.

Biological Activity
Supplementary ethylene suppresses the elevated levels of DIMBOA-Glc in ZmMPK6-silenced maize lines L1 and L2 treated with simulated herbivorous insect feeding, restoring them to the levels observed in the wild-type maize inbred line A188[1].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
DIMBOA-Glc (natural feeding; 8 h) is inert towards plant glucosidases as (2S)-DIMBOA-Glc, preventing hydrolysis back to the toxic DIMBOA aglucone in Spodoptera littoralis gut contents[2].
DIMBOA-Glc (natural feeding; 48 h) is produced and excreted in frass as part of a detoxification strategy in Spodoptera frugiperda, Spodoptera littoralis, and Spodoptera exigua[2].
