HY5 inhibitors, in the context of chemical regulation, refer to compounds that can indirectly influence the activity of HY5, a plant-specific transcription factor. These inhibitors do not bind directly to the HY5 protein, but affect its function by altering related signaling pathways or hormonal balances in plants. HY5 plays a crucial role in integrating light signaling with plant development and growth. It is involved in processes such as seed germination, shade avoidance and stress responses. By influencing these pathways, the chemicals listed can modulate HY5 activity.

Indirect inhibitors of HY5 include a variety of plant hormones and growth regulators, such as gibberellic acid, abscisic acid, cytokinins (such as kinetin and zeatin) and auxins (such as indole-3-acetic acid). These substances are fundamental to plant growth and development, and their modulation can have an impact on HY5 activity. For example, gibberellic acid and cytokinins promote plant growth and can counteract HY5-mediated growth inhibition in certain light conditions. On the other hand, abscisic acid, which acts as a stress hormone, can interact with HY5 pathways during stress responses, potentially modifying the role of HY5 in these processes. In addition, synthetic compounds such as paclobutrazol and uniconazole, which inhibit the biosynthesis of gibberellins, can indirectly affect HY5, altering the plant's growth patterns. Compounds that release ethylene or inhibit its synthesis also play a role in modulating HY5 activity, given the interaction between the ethylene and light signaling pathways in plants.
