acetolactate synthase การใช้

• When resistance appeared farmers turned to a group of herbicides that block acetolactate synthase.
• Hoegrass was mostly replaced by a group of herbicides that block acetolactate synthase, again helped by poor application practices.
• The structure of acetolactate synthase that was used for the picture on this page was determined using X-ray diffraction at 2.70 angstroms.
• It functions via the inhibitition of acetolactate synthase enzyme, which catalyses the first step in biosynthesis of the branched-chain amino acids valine, leucine and isoleucine.
• Oxalyl-CoA decarboxylase is hypothesized to be evolutionarily related to acetolactate synthase, a TPP-dependent enzyme responsible for the biosynthesis of branched chain amino acids in certain organisms.
• Despite their similarities, only oxalyl-CoA decarboxylase is necessary for the formation of ATP in " Oxalobacter formigenes ", and exogenous ADP has been demonstrated to increase the decarboxylase activity of OXC, but not acetolactate synthase.
• "' ?-Acetolactic acid "'( "'?-acetolactate "') is a precursor in the biosynthesis of the branched chain amino acids valine and leucine . ?-Acetolactic acid is produced from two molecules of pyruvic acid by acetolactate synthase . ?-Acetolactic acid can also be decarboxylated by alpha-acetolactate decarboxylase to produce acetoin.
