摘要
All hormone receptors have been thought to start action by binding their active hormone molecules reversibly.However,a novel perception mechanism for the plant branching hormone strigolactones(SLs)has unexpectedly branched out from this classic model:the receptor D14 generates and irreversibly binds active SL molecule CLIM,suggesting that SL perception surprisingly integrates both'substrate-enzyme'and'hormone-receptor'interactions(Yao et al.,2016).
All hormone receptors have been thought to start action by binding their active hormone molecules reversibly. Howev- er, a novel perception mechanism for the plant branching hormone strigolactones (SLs) has unexpectedly branched out from this classic model: the receptor D14 generates and irreversibly binds active SL molecule CLIM, suggesting that SL perception surprisingly integrates both "sub- strate-enzyme" and "hormone-receptor" interactions (Yao et al., 2016).
