3-Methyleneoxindole, a metabolite in plants of the natural auxin, indole-3-acetic acid, has been found to desensitize several regulatory enzymes to feedback inhibition by their ultimate end products. As such effects could accelerate rate-limiting reactions, it has been suggested that increases in metabolism and growth by plant auxin may be the result of its enzymatic conversion to 3-methyleneoxindole.
