Cytokinins in the soluble RNA of plant tissues

Science. 1967 Apr 7;156(3771):69-71. doi: 10.1126/science.156.3771.69.

Abstract

The cytokinin, N(6)-(Delta(2)-isopentenyl) adenosine occurs in the soluble RNA of yeast and mammalian tissue and has now been detected in plant soluble RNA. A hydroxylated derivative of this cytokinin 6-(cis-4-hydroxy-3-methylbut-2-enylamino)-9-,beta-D-ribofuranosylpurine has also been identified as a constituent of plant soluble RNA.
