• Here, we demonstrate that acetohydroxyacid synthase (AHAS), the first enzyme in the branched-chain amino acid biosynthesis pathway, is a promising new target for antifungal drug discovery. (rcsb.org)
  • In weed species, resistance to herbicides inhibiting acetohydroxyacid synthase (AHAS) is often conferred by genetic mutations at one of six codons in the AHAS gene. (weedscience.com)
  • The herbicide tolerance results from a single point mutation in the major acetohydroxyacid synthase (AHAS) gene such that this enzyme, the target of imidazolinone herbicides, is no longer affected by imazethapyr. (canada.ca)
  • Imidazolinone herbicides are active against the enzyme acetohydroxyacid synthase (AHAS), also known as acetolactate synthase (ALS). (canada.ca)
  • Stepnaya 15, co-transformed with acetohydroxyacid synthase gene that provides tolerance to imidazolinone herbicides. (openbiotechnologyjournal.com)
  • Saratovskaya 29 were used for co-transformation with two independent Minimal Expression Units (MEUs): class I chitinase and Acetohydroxyacid Synthase (AHAS) gene. (openbiotechnologyjournal.com)
  • Rimsulphuron acts by hindering the activity of acetolactate synthase (ALS), otherwise called acetohydroxyacid synthase (AHAS). (farmpays.com)
