Arabidopsis response to the apocarotenoid zaxinone involves interference with strigolactone signaling via binding to DWARF14 - Nature Communications Zaxinone is a novel ligand of the strigolactone (SL) receptor DWARF14 (D14) in Arabidopsis. It competitively binds the active site of D14 and acts as a long-lasting, non-hydrolysable antagonist of SL by blocking the interaction between D14 and MAX2.

Great work by Moreno et al. (2025) in showing that the #apocarotenoid zaxinone is a novel ligand of the #strigolactone (SL) receptor DWARF14 (D14) in #Arabidopsis, which acts as a non-hydrolysable SL antagonist by blocking the interaction between D14 and MAX2. #KAUST
