Acetolactate Synthase (ALS)
Acetohydroxyacid synthase
Acetohydroxyacid synthase (ALS), a thiamine diphosphate-dependent enzyme, can condense either two pyruvate molecules to form acetolactate for synthesizing Lvaline and L-leucine or pyruvate with 2-ketobutyrate to form acetohydroxybutyrate for synthesizing L-isoleucine. Because the key reaction catalyzed by acetohydroxyacid synthase in the biosynthetic pathways of branched-chain amino acids (valine, leucine, and isoleucine) exists in plants, fungi, archaea, and bacteria, but not in animals, acetohydroxyacid synthase becomes a potential target for developing novel herbicides and antimicrobial compounds.

Chlorsulfuron completely inhibits germination of non-target terrestrial plants and is highly toxic to aquatic macrophytes. Chlorsulfuron has low toxicity to mammals, birds and bees, and moderate toxicity to fish and aquatic invertebrates. Chlorsulfuron can be used in studies related to herbicides, plant cell cycles and ecotoxicology.
