GlyphosateGlyphosate , N-(phosphenomethyl) glycine interferes with the synthesis of the aromatic amino acids phenylalanine, tyrosine and tryptophan. It inhibits the enzyme 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS), which catalyzes the reaction of shikimate-3-phosphate (S3P) and phosphoenolpyruvate to form 5-enolpyruvyl-shikimate-3-phosphate (ESP).BioWold provides glyphosate [N-(phosphenomethyl) glycine ammonium salt] formulated for screening og transgenic plants expressinh glyphosate resistant EPSP synthase gene.Synonym:N-(Phosphonomethyl)glycine Inhibits the shikimate pathway during biosynthesis of the aromatic amino acids, resulting in accumulation of shikimate and cell deathActive ingredient in Roundup™also known as BASTA™ Plant cell culture testedAppearance: white to off-white powderMelting Point: 230 °CSoluble in waterIrritating to eyes, respiratory system and skin; harmful if swallowed.
