Abstract

Inhibition of the enzyme phenylalanine ammonia-lyase is considered as a target for the design of herbicides. A reliable and simple assay for the enzyme has been used and the kinetics of the enzyme from several sources compared. Purification of the enzyme from the grass green foxtail (Setaria glauca) did not change its kinetic behavior. The distribution of phenylalanine ammonia-lyase and tyrosine ammonia-lyase activity in various plant species was determined
