| A New Non-Radioactive Assay of Phytoene Desaturase to Evaluate Bleaching Herbicides  | | | | Abstract
| A non-radioactive cell-free assay was developed to quantitatively determine inhibition of plant-type phytoene desaturase by bleaching herbicides. A n active desaturase was prepared from an appropriately cloned E. coli transformant. Another E. coli transformant was used to produce the required phytoene. Phytofluene and t-carotene, the products of the desaturase reaction, were either determined by H PL C or optical absorption spectra. Enzyme kinetics and inhibition data for the bleaching tetrazole herbicide W L 1 10547 are presented as an example. | | | |
