Summary:Compositions and methods for conferring herbicide resistance or tolerance upon plants towards certain classes of herbicide are provided. In particular these are amine, alcohol and aminal herbicides. The compositions include nucleotide and amino acid sequences for wild-type and mutant glucosyl transferase polypeptides. The polypeptides of the invention are mutant or wild type glucosyl transferases that are capable of catalyzing the transfer of glucose to certain herbicidal structures and that, thereby, confer resistance or tolerance in plants to amine, alcohol and aminal PSII herbicides. Particularly, polypeptides of the invention include mutant or wild-type bx-type UDP glucosyl transferases. L'invention concerne des compositions et des procédés capables de conférer une résistance ou une tolérance aux herbicides à des plantes envers certaines classes d'herbicides, en particulier les herbicides à base d'amine, alcool et aminal. Les compositions comprennent des séquences de nucléotides et d'acides aminés relatives à des polypeptides de glucosyl transférase de type sauvage et mutants. Les polypeptides selon l'invention sont des glucosyl transférases mutantes ou de type sauvage capables de catalyser le transfert de glucose vers certaines structures herbicides et qui, de ce fait, confèrent une résistance ou une tolérance chez les plantes aux herbicides à base d'amine, alcool et aminal PSII. En particulier, les polypeptides selon l'invention comprennent des glucosyl transférases UDP de type bx mutantes ou de type sauvage.
