As many of the methods are computer-implemented, the invention additionally provides digital systems and software for performing these methods.
摘要:
This invention relates to novel screening methods for identifying compounds that specifically inhibit a metabolic target site or pathway in plants. Enzymes which are specifically affected by the novel screening method include plant purine biosynthetic pathway enzymes and particularly the enzymes involved in the conversion of IMP to AMP and the conversion of IMP to GMP. Further the invention relates to a method for screening and identifying potential novel compounds that function by the same mode of action as hydantocidin, and the compositions and method of use comprising said compounds.
