Abstract:
Chemical genetics, through the modulation of protein families by small molecule compounds, demonstrates broad or highly specific targeting capabilities, thereby enabling chemical regulation of biological processes. This technique not only exhibits extreme flexibility in temporal and spatial control, but also circumvents bottlenecks such as genetic redundancy and lethal mutations faced by classical genetics. In recent years, chemical genetics has been widely applied in the field of plant science research, providing a novel perspective and powerful tools for delving into the mechanisms of plant hormone signal transduction. This report will introduce the research methods and application cases of chemical genetics.
