However, owing to its massive use,glyphosate and its residues contaminate surface waters. On site, fastmonitoring of contamination is therefore urgently needed to alert localauthorities and raise population awareness. Here the hindrance of the activityof two enzymes, the exonuclease I (Exo I) and the T5 exonuclease (T5 Exo) byglyphosate, is reported. These two enzymes digest oligonucleotides intoshorter sequences, down to single nucleotides. The presence of glyphosate inthe reaction medium hampers the activity of both enzymes, slowing downenzymatic digestion. It is shown by fluorescence spectroscopy that theinhibition of ExoI enzymatic activity is specific to glyphosate, paving the wayfor the development of a biosensor to detect this pollutant in drinking water atsuitable detection limits, i.e., 0.6 nm %G English %2 https://hal.science/hal-04055735/document %2 https://hal.science/hal-04055735/file/ManuscriptR120230113.pdf %L hal-04055735 %U https://hal.science/hal-04055735 %~ SDE %~ CNRS %~ UNIV-PAU %~ GIP-BE %~ IPREM %~ INC-CNRS %~ IPREM-CAPT %~ IPREM-PCM %~ ANR %~ UPPA-OA
