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

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
