Indole-3-acetamide is an endogenous metabolite of tryptophan and intermediate in the biosynthesis of the major plant, fungal, and bacterial auxin hormone, indole-3-acetic acid (IAA; Item No. 16954), in phytopathogenic bacteria.{61551} It is formed directly from tryptophan in plants by tryptophan monooxygenase or, indirectly, through indole-3-acetonitrile or indole-3-acetaldoxime intermediates. Exogenous application of indole-3-acetamide (20 µM) increases the expression of ami1, the gene encoding amidase 1, the enzyme that catalyzes the synthesis of indole-3-acetic acid from indole-3-acetamide, in Arabidopsis.{61552} It reduces relative primary root elongation in Arabidopsis mutants that have increased amidase activity and lower indole-3-acetamide levels, but not in wild-type Arabidopsis, when used at concentrations of 1 and 10 µM. Indole-3-acetamide inhibits mouse and rat liver, as well as P. fluorescens and tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase but not rabbit intestine or mouse epididymis indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase.{61553}
