This gene is derived from Arabidopsis thaliana and encodes a enzyme necessary for synthesizing precursor of isopentenyladenine (iP), a kind of cytokinin. Cytokinins are signaling molecules (Phytohormones) in plants and play important roles in cell growth and differentiation. AtIPT4 has the adenylate dimethylallyltransferase ([EC:2.5.1.112]: cytokinin synthase) activity and catalyzes the transfer of an isopentenyl group from dimethylallyl diphosphate (DMAPP) to ATP and ADP, producing cytokinin nucleotides. Note that cytokinin nucleotides are the immature form.

The DNA sequences of these genes are optimized for expressing in human cells considering the codon usage.


Characterization

We tested the expression of AtIPT4 protein in human cell(EA.hy626) that necessary for a synthesis of iP(isopentenyl adenine: kind of cytokinin).
