The Metabolism of 14C-Labeled Isatin and Anthranilate in Pisum Stem Sections 1,2

Milan Kutacek3 and Arthur W. Galston

Department of Biology, Yale University, New Haven, Connecticut

Isatin, previously shown to promote growth in green and etiolated pea stems, is converted mainly to anthranilate in those tissues; small quantities of isatate are also formed. Fed anthranilate is converted mainly to its {beta}-D-glucoside; smaller amounts are metabolized to anthranilamide, tryptophan and kynurenine. These data provide some basis for understanding the growth promoting activity of isatin.
