ATP binding cassette transporters and uridine diphosphate glycosyltransferases are ancient protein families that evolved roles in herbicide resistance through exaptation.

ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters actively transport various substances across membranes, while uridine diphosphate (UDP) glycosyltransferases (UGTs) are proteins that catalyse the chemical modification of various organic compounds. Both of these protein superfamilies have been associated with...
