Amino Acid Biosynthesis - PiratePanel

Plants synthesize all 20 amino acids. Many herbicides act as inhibitors of enzymes in the amino acid biosythetic pathways. Glyphosate (roundup) is a PEP analogue that inhibits an enzyme in the shikimate pathway and shuts down synthesis of aromatic amino acids Sulfmeturon methyl (Oust) inhibits valine, leucine, isoleucine synthesis ................
