AroA*: Resistant aroA-variant in Escherichia coli

This part encodes a resistant variant to the native aroA gene in Escherichia coli. The resistance occurs due to 2 point mutations within the DNA sequence. At position 287 a Guanin was changed to a Cytosin and at position 547 a Guanin was changed to an Adenin.

This part can be used to confer glyphosate resistance to bacteria, as the mutation decreases the interaction of the herbicide with the EPSP-Synthase, which is encoded by the native aroA gene.
