Enzymes and metabolic pathways

Because carbohydrates are so frequently used as substrates in kinetic studies of enzymes and metabolic pathways, we refer the reader to the following topics in Ro-byt s excellent account of chemical reactions used to modify carbohydrates formation of carbohydrate esters, pp. 77-81 sulfonic acid esters, pp. 81-83 ethers [methyl, p. 83 trityl, pp. 83-84 benzyl, pp. 84-85 trialkyl silyl, p. 85] acetals and ketals, pp. 85-92 modifications at C-1 [reduction of aldehydes and ketones, pp. 92-93 reduction of thioacetals, p. 93 oxidation, pp. 93-94 chain elongation, pp. 94-98 chain length reduction, pp. 98-99 substitution at the reducing carbon atom, pp. 99-103 formation of gycosides, pp. 103-105 formation of glycosidic linkages between monosaccharide residues, 105-108] modifications at C-2, pp. 108-113 modifications at C-3, pp. 113-120 modifications at C-4, pp. 121-124 modifications at C-5, pp. 125-128 modifications at C-6 in hexopy-ranoses, pp. 128-134.

SHELLEY D. COPLEY is a professor of molecular, cellular and developmental biology at the University of Colorado at Boulder. Her research interests center on the molecular evolution of enzymes and metabolic pathways and protein structure-function relationships. Dr. Copley is a member of the Council of Fellows of the University of Colorado s Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences. Dr. Copley served on the NSF Molecular Biochemistry Panel (1999-2003), was co-chair for the Gordon Conference on Enzymes, Coenzymes, and Metabolic Pathways (2004), and currently serves on the National Institutes of Health Genetic Variation and Evolution Study Section. 

The need exists to expand the repertoire of tools available for weed management systems. What little we know of the molecular target sites of natural phytotoxins indicates that they are inhibitors of a broad array of enzymes and other molecular targets that have not been the focus of herbicide discovery efforts [1]. At present, commercially available herbicides target a relatively limited number of enzymes and metabolic pathways. The discovery of new target sites is a growing emphasis of pesticide companies, especially since the U.S. Food Quality Protection Act has combined food tolerance levels of pesticides with the same molecular target sites.
