Adenylate dimethylallyltransferase (EC 2.5.1.27) is an enzyme first characterised from tobacco that catalyzes a chemical reaction which converts adenosine monophosphate to N(6)-(dimethylallyl)adenosine 5'-monophosphate. It transfers an isoprenyl group from dimethylallyl pyrophosphate, giving orthophosphate (PPi) as a byproduct. The reaction is part of the pathway to cytokinin plant hormones such as zeatin.[1] the enzyme has also been found in Arabidopsis thaliana and Humulus lupulus.[2][3]

This enzyme is a transferase, specifically those transferring aryl or alkyl groups other than methyl groups. The systematic name of this enzyme class is dimethylallyl-diphosphate:AMP dimethylallyltransferase. Other names in common use include cytokinin synthase, isopentenyltransferase, 2-isopentenyl-diphosphate:AMP Delta2-isopentenyltransferase, and adenylate isopentenyltransferase.[4]
