“…5 ). As an electron-withdrawing group, although the carbonyl group (C=O) would make the hydrogen on its adjacent atoms exhibit considerable activity and dissociate more easily ( 55 , 56 , 57 ), the carbonyl (C=O) group has been used to prepare biologically active ABA-photoaffinity labels ( 58 , 59 ). In summary, the process of the ABA–protein interaction in the binding pocket is mainly dependent on the carboxyl (-COOH) and hydroxyl (-OH) groups of ABA, rather than its carbonyl group (C=O).…”
