ABSTRACT:
There are described a method for enriching the anabolic p-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenases from plant tissues and a method by means of which the enzymatic activity of the enzyme can be measured in a simple manner without complete purification of the enzyme being necessary.
The invention furthermore describes an assay system for identifying inhibitors of p-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase from plants, in which an enriched HPPD from plants is incubated with a test substrate to be examined and the enzymatic activity of the enzyme is determined in comparison with the activity of the uninhibited enzyme.
The invention furthermore describes the novel herbicidal active substances of the formula (I) ##STR1## which were found using the assay method according to the invention.
