Arabidopsis thaliana (Arabidopsis) treated with the four stereoisomers of Brz220 (2RS, 4RS-1-[4-propyl-2-(4-trifluoromethylphenyl)-1, 3-dioxane-2-ylmethyl]-1H-1, 2, 4-triazole) showed a dwarf phenotype like brassinosteroid (BR) biosynthesis mutants that were rescued by treatment of BRs. The target sites of each Brz220 stereoisomer were investigated by treatment of Arabidopsis with BRs in the dark. The results suggest that the stereoisomers block the 22-hydroxylation step in BR biosynthesis. This step is catalyzed by DWF4, an Arabidopsis cytochrome P450 identified as a steroid 22-hydroxylase. The enzyme was expressed in E. coli, and the binding affinity of the stereoisomers to recombinant DWF4 was analyzed. The results indicate that in these stereoisomers there exists a positive correlation between binding affinity to DWF4 and inhibition of Arabidopsis hypocotyl growth. In this context, we concluded that DWF4 is the target site of Brz220 in Arabidopsis.
