Abstract: | Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) were developed for determination of N6-benzyladenosine, N6-(meta-hydroxybenzyl)adenosine, and structurally related cytokinins. The use of the ELISAs allowed detection over the range of 0.05–70 pmol for N6-benzyladenine and 0.01–20 pmol for the N6-(meta-hydroxybenzyl)adenine cytokinins. Polyclonal antibodies used in the assays were specific for N6-benzyladenine and N6-(meta-hydroxybenzyl)adenine and their corresponding N9-substituted derivatives. By the use of internal standardization, dilution assays, authentic [2-3H]cytokinin recovery markers, and immunohistograms, the ELISAs have been shown to be applicable for the estimation of N6-benzyladenine and N6-(meta-hydroxybenzyl)adenine-type cytokinins in plant tissues. For the analysis of cytokinins in the tissues of young poplar leaves and Solarium teratoma shoot culture, the extracts were fractionated by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and the fractions analyzed by ELISAs. Immunohistogram ELISA analysis of fractions from different HPLC systems indicated major peaks of immunoreactivity co-chromatographing with the labeled and unlabeled standards of N6-benzyladenine, N6-meta-hydroxybenzyl)adenine, and their N9-glycosides in these tissues.Abbreviations ELISA enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay - FW fresh weight - (mOH)[9R]BAP N6-(meta-hydroxybenzyl)adenosine - HPLC high performance liquid chromatography - TBS Tris-buffered saline - TEAA triethylammonium acetate - [9R]BAP N6-benzyladenosine |
