AAL1
AAL1 is a synthetic auxin analog with weak auxin activity, which acts through the auxin receptor TIR1. AAL1 inhibits root and hypocotyl growth of dark-grown Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings, with growth inhibition IC50 values of approximately 20 μM and 50 μM, respectively. AAL1 activates the auxin signaling pathway, promotes DII-VENUS degradation and auxin-responsive gene expression, and its biological effects depend on the auxin influx and efflux transport systems. AAL1 can be used to study weak genetic interactions in the auxin signaling pathway and the regulation of auxin function by amino acids.

Biological Activity
Description
In Vitro
AAL1 (F1800-0169) (0-200 μM; 3 days) inhibits root and hypocotyl growth of dark-grown Arabidopsis thaliana Col-0 seedlings, with an IC50 of 20 μM for root growth and 50 μM for hypocotyl growth, but does not inhibit apical hook growth at concentrations below 180 μM[1].
AAL1 (10-20 μM; 6 d; 16 h light/8 h dark) promotes hypocotyl elongation in Col-0 and yuc1/2/4/6 seedlings, indicating that this effect is independent of YUCCA-mediated auxin biosynthesis[1].
The inhibitory effect of AAL1 (50 or 100 μM; 3 d; dark culture) on root growth is significantly attenuated in tir1-1 seedlings, whereas yuc1/2/4/6 shows no significant resistance to AAL1, which supports that the biological function of AAL1 depends on the auxin receptor TIR1 rather than auxin biosynthesis[1].
AAL1 (50 μM; 0.5 or 3 h; dark-cultured Col-0 seedlings) increases the expression of auxin-responsive genes ARF19, IAA2 and GH3.3, with a significant elevation already observed at 0.5 h[1].
AAL1 (0.5-3 h; DII-VENUS transgenic seedlings) rapidly reduces the DII-VENUS fluorescence signal, with obvious degradation observable within 0.5 h; its effect is weaker than that of 2,4-D and IAA, which supports that AAL1 is involved in TIR1-mediated degradation of auxin signaling proteins[1].
Root and hypocotyl growth inhibition induced by AAL1 (100 μM; 3 d; dark culture) is partially reversed by the auxin efflux inhibitor NPA (0.05-0.2 μM); in addition, multiple aux1 mutants show reduced sensitivity to AAL1, indicating that the action of AAL1 depends on auxin influx and efflux transport systems[1].
The inhibition of seedling root and hypocotyl growth induced by AAL1 (100 μM; 3 d; dark culture) can be significantly partially reversed by Tyr or Phe (200 μM), while Trp does not exert the same reversing effect[1].
After treatment with AAL1 (100 μM; seeds imbibed at 4°C for 3 d, followed by germination in the dark at 22°C for 3 d), LC-MS detects a chemical with the same mass and retention time as AAL1 in seedlings, supporting that AAL1 mainly functions in an unmodified form[1].
