Product Description
(S)-N-(1H-Indole-3-acetyl)tryptophan (compound 4a) is a tryptophan derivative that weakly inhibits β-D-glucosidase.
(S)-N-(1H-Indole-3-acetyl)tryptophan (compound 4a) is a tryptophan derivative that weakly inhibits beta-D-glucosidase. It is an indole-3-acetyl-amino acid conjugate involved in regulatory mechanisms for the control of auxin activity in plants. This compound is also found naturally in soybean (Glycine max) and tomato (Solanum lycopersicum). CAS: 57105-53-0. MW: 361.39.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
(S)-N-(1H-Indole-3-acetyl)tryptophan (indole-3-acetyl-L-tryptophan) is a tryptophan derivative that targets beta-D-glucosidase, a glycoside hydrolase enzyme that cleaves the beta-glycosidic bond in beta-D-glucosides. It is a weak inhibitor of beta-D-glucosidase. In plants, this compound is an indole-3-acetyl-amino acid conjugate involved in the regulation of auxin (indole-3-acetic acid, IAA) activity. Auxin conjugates serve as storage or transport forms of the active auxin. No specific mammalian targets have been identified; it is primarily a plant metabolite.
ln Vitro
In vitro, (S)-N-(1H-Indole-3-acetyl)tryptophan (compound 4a) is a tryptophan derivative that weakly inhibits beta-D-glucosidase. No specific IC50 value is reported; the inhibition is described as weak. The compound has been reported to be present in Glycine max (soybean) and Solanum lycopersicum (tomato). It is an indole-3-acetyl-amino acid conjugate involved in regulatory mechanisms for the control of auxin activity in plants. No cellular activity data in mammalian cells are reported. The compound is a research tool for studying auxin regulation in plants.
ln Vivo
No in vivo activity data for (S)-N-(1H-Indole-3-acetyl)tryptophan are reported. In plants, indole-3-acetyl-amino acid conjugates are involved in auxin homeostasis. The compound could be used in plant physiology research to study auxin signaling and transport. In animals, there are no reported in vivo studies. The compound is not a therapeutic agent and is not intended for use in animals.
Enzyme Assay
The binding of (S)-N-(1H-Indole-3-acetyl)tryptophan to beta-D-glucosidase is measured by standard in vitro enzyme activity assays using purified beta-D-glucosidase (e.g., from almonds, sweet almonds, or other sources). The compound is incubated with the enzyme and a chromogenic substrate such as p-nitrophenyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside (pNPG) or a fluorogenic substrate (e.g., 4-methylumbelliferyl-beta-D-glucoside). The reaction is stopped, and the absorbance (p-nitrophenol at 405 nm) or fluorescence is measured. The IC50 is calculated from dose-response curves (0.1-1000 ug/mL). No specific IC50 value is reported in the search results. The weak inhibition is noted.
Cell Assay
No cellular experiments for (S)-N-(1H-Indole-3-acetyl)tryptophan are described in the search results. For studies of auxin conjugation, plant cell cultures (e.g., Arabidopsis thaliana or soybean cell suspensions) are treated with the compound (10-100 uM) for 1-24 hours. The levels of free IAA, IAA-aspartate, and IAA-glutamate are measured by HPLC-MS/MS. Gene expression of auxin-responsive genes (e.g., IAA1, IAA2, ARF5) is measured by qPCR. For beta-D-glucosidase inhibition studies, plant or mammalian cell lysates containing beta-D-glucosidase activity are incubated with the compound, and enzyme activity is measured as described. No such data are provided.
Animal Protocol
No animal experiments for (S)-N-(1H-Indole-3-acetyl)tryptophan are described in the search results. The compound is a plant metabolite and is not typically used in animal studies. For pharmacokinetic studies, if administered to animals, the compound would likely be rapidly metabolized, and IAA (a plant auxin) would be released. IAA has been studied as a potential biomarker for certain diseases, but no specific animal data are available.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics

Additional Infomation
Reports indicate that soybeans and tomatoes contain (2S)-3-(1H-indol-3-yl)-2-[[2-(1H-indol-3-yl)acetyl]amino]propionic acid, and relevant data are available for reference.
(S)-N-(1H-Indole-3-acetyl)tryptophan (also known as indole-3-acetyl-L-tryptophan, IAA-L-tryptophan) is a naturally occurring indole-3-acetyl-amino acid conjugate. Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) is the most common naturally occurring plant hormone (auxin). Auxins regulate plant growth and development, including cell elongation, division, differentiation, and tropisms. IAA is often conjugated to amino acids (e.g., aspartate, glutamate, tryptophan) to form inactive storage or transport forms. These conjugates can be hydrolyzed to release free IAA when needed. The compound is a weak inhibitor of beta-D-glucosidase. It is for research use only and has no therapeutic applications.
