摘要: The enzyme 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EC 2.5.1.19), encoded by the aroA locus, is a target site of glyphosate inhibition in bacteria. A glyphosate-resistant allele has been cloned Escherichia coli from mutagenized strain Salmonella typhimurium. Subcloning this mutant shows gene to reside on 1.3-kilobase segment S. typhimurium DNA. Nucleotide sequence analysis indicates protein-coding region 427 amino acids length. Comparison and wild type sequences reveals single base pair change resulting Pro Ser acid substitution at 101st codon protein. hybrid fusion between was constructed. 5-Enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate prepared E. cells harboring construct. phenotype shown be associated with described above.
