FIGURE 8

Model for the action of Trp conjugates in IAA transport. Turquoise ovals represent wild type AUX1 and yellow, the tcor1-D mutant version with the Asn for Asp substitution. Transport of IAA via AUX1 is indicated by arrows. Interaction of JA-Trp, IAA-Trp or PAA-Trp with AUX1 blocks IAA transport in wild type plants. In the mutant either JA-Trp doesn’t interact or does so in a way that does not interfere with IAA polar movement. The other conjugates are still effective at promoting an agravitropic root response, as indicated by the seedling representations.
