Abstract

The brassinosteroid-like active principles from immature seeds of Zea mays were purified and identified as castasterone, teasterone, 28-norcastasterone and 6-deoxocastasterone by GC-MS analysis. Our work is probably the first report that showed the presence of brassinosteroids in Zea mays seeds.

옥수수미숙종자에 함유된 brassinosteroid활성물질을 탐색하고자 MeOH추출물에서 얻어진 brassinosteroid활성물질을 정제, 분획하여 GC-MS로 분석한 결과, castasterone, teasterone, 28-norcastasterone, 6-deoxocastasterone 등의 4종의 brassinosteroid가 옥수수종자로부터 최초로 동정되었다.
