Common name:

(S)-(+)-Abscisic Acid

Chemical name (IUPAC):

(S)-5-(1-Hydroxy-266-trimethyl-4-oxo-2-cyclohexen-1-yl)-3-methyl-(2Z4E)-pentadienoic acid

CAS NO.:

21293-29-8

Empirical formula:

C₁₅H₂₀O₄

Structural formula:

Uses:

• Stimulates the closure of stomata (water stress brings about an increase in ABA synthesis). 
• Inhibits shoot growth but will not have as much affect on roots or may even promote growth of roots. 
• Induces seeds to synthesize storage proteins. 
• Inhibits the affect of gibberellins on stimulating de novo synthesis of a-amylase. 
• Has some effect on induction and maintanance of dormancy. 
• Induces gene transcription especially for proteinase inhibitors in response to wounding which may explain an apparent role in pathogen defense.
