Inhibits EPSPS enzyme involved in the Shikimate pathway.

Glyphosate, 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…
