a Michaelis–Menten plot and kinetics parameters of the AtDAO1 enzyme for IAA-Glu (n = 3). Error bars, SE. b in vivo conversion of IAA-Asp-DM to IAA. Endogenous and [D2]IAA-Asp and [D2]IAA were measured after incubation of 8-d-old WT and ilr1 ill2 iar3 ill3 (ilr1/ill) quadruple mutants with 1 μM [D2]IAA-Asp-DM for 6 h. The values shown are the means ± SD (***P < 0.001, ns: not significant, two-tailed Student’s t test, n = 4). c Phenotypes of dao1-1- and AtDAO1-overexpressing (35S::AtDAO1) plants grown for 6 days with 1 μM IAA-Asp-DM. Scale bar, 10 mm. d Effects of IAA-Glu on root growth in dao1-1, dao1 dao2, 35S::AtDAO1, iar3 dao1-1, and ilr1 dao1-1 mutants. Root length (6-d-old) is shown as the percentage of that in mock-treated plants (100%). The different letters represent statistical significance at P < 0.001 (Tukey’s HSD test, n = 20). e The levels of IAA metabolites after treatment with IAA-amino acid diesters. WT, dao1-1, and GFP-AtDAO1-overexpressing dao1-1 mutants (7-d-old) were incubated for 20 h with the compounds. The values shown are the means ± SD (***P < 0.001, two-tailed Student’s t test, n = 3).
