Description:
DWARF14 is a non-canonical hormone receptor for strigolactone Nature 536, 7617 (2016). doi:10.1038/nature19073 Authors: Ruifeng Yao, Zhenhua Ming, Liming Yan, Suhua Li, Fei Wang, Sui Ma, Caiting Yu, Mai Yang, Li Chen, Linhai Chen, Yuwen Li, Chun Yan, Di Miao, Zhongyuan Sun, Jianbin Yan, Yuna Sun, Lei Wang, Jinfang Chu, Shilong Fan, Wei He, Haiteng Deng, Fajun Nan, Jiayang Li, Zihe Rao, Zhiyong Lou & Daoxin Xie Classical hormone receptors reversibly and non-covalently bind active hormone molecules, which are generated by biosynthetic enzymes, to trigger signal transduction. The α/β hydrolase DWARF14 (D14), which hydrolyses the plant branching hormone strigolactone and interacts with the F-box protein D3/MAX2, is probably involved in strigolactone detection
