General description
3-Indoleacetonitrile (Indolylacetonitrile) is a light-induced auxin-inhibitory substance that is isolated from light-grown cabbage (Brassica olearea L.) shoots. It inhibits the biofilm formation of both E. coli O157:H7 and P. aeruginosa without affecting its growth.
Application
Reactant for preparation of:
- Tryptophan dioxygenase inhibitors pyridyl-ethenyl-indoles as potential anticancer immunomodulators
- Histone deacetylase inhibitors
- Potential kinase inhibitors
- Kv7/KCNQ potassium channel activators
- Kinesin-Specific MKLP-2 Inhibitor
- Pesticides
- Potential PET cancer imaging agents
- Agonists of the Farnesoid X Receptor (FXR) as atherosclerosis treatment
- Butyrylcholinesterase inhibitors
- Necroptosis inhibitors

Arabidopsis thaliana expresses four nitrilases, three of which (NIT1, NIT2 and NIT3) are able to convert indole-3-acetonitrile to indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), the plant growth hormone, while the isozyme NIT4 is a beta-cyano-l-alanine hydratase/nitrilase. NIT3 promoter activity is marginal in leaves

The perception of pathogen or microbe-associated molecular pattern molecules by plants triggers a basal defense response analogous to animal innate immunity and is defined partly by the deposition of the glucan polymer callose at the cell wall at the site
