2. RuBisCO - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RuBisCo

   RuBisCO is important biologically because it catalyzes the primary chemical reaction by which inorganic carbon enters the biosphere.While many autotrophic bacteria and archaea fix carbon via the reductive acetyl CoA pathway, the 3-hydroxypropionate cycle, or the reverse Krebs cycle, these pathways are relatively small contributors to global carbon fixation compared to that catalyzed by RuBisCO.

3. C4 carbon fixation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C4_carbon_fixation

   C 4 photosynthesis reduces photorespiration by concentrating CO 2 around RuBisCO. To enable RuBisCO to work in a cellular environment where there is a lot of carbon dioxide and very little oxygen, C 4 leaves generally contain two partially isolated compartments called mesophyll cells and bundle-sheath cells.

4. Fractionation of carbon isotopes in oxygenic photosynthesis

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fractionation_of_carbon...

   The large fractionation of 13 C in photosynthesis is due to the carboxylation reaction, which is carried out by the enzyme ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase oxygenase, or RuBisCO. [5] RuBisCO catalyzes the reaction between a five-carbon molecule, ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate (abbreviated as RuBP) and CO 2 to form two molecules of 3 ...

5. Kinetic isotope effects of RuBisCO - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinetic_Isotope_Effects_of...

   This chemical reaction is catalyzed by the enzyme RuBisCO, and this enzyme-catalyzed reaction creates the primary kinetic isotope effect of photosynthesis. [1] It is also largely responsible for the isotopic compositions of photosynthetic organisms and the heterotrophs that eat them.

6. Carboxysome - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carboxysome

   Both proteins bind to Rubisco, thereby ensuring that Rubisco gets packaged during carboxysome biogenesis. [28] [29] Remarkably, both proteins bind to Rubisco at a binding site that bridges two large subunits while maintaining contact with the small subunit, ensuring that only the 16-subunit Rubisco holoenzyme is encapsulated. Both CsoS2 and ...

7. Photorespiration - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photorespiration

   C 2 photosynthesis (also called glycine shuttle and photorespiratory CO 2 pump) is a CCM that works by making use of – as opposed to avoiding – photorespiration. It performs carbon refixation by delaying the breakdown of photorespired glycine, so that the molecule is shuttled from the mesophyll into the bundle sheath .

   Out of all the mashed potato mistakes you can make, adding too much liquid to your spuds is sure to ruin your day. After all, nobody wants to take a scoop of soupy mashed potatoes! But what if you ...

9. Biological carbon fixation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_carbon_fixation

   Cyanobacteria such as these carry out photosynthesis. Their emergence foreshadowed the evolution of many photosynthetic plants and oxygenated Earth's atmosphere. Biological carbon fixation, or сarbon assimilation, is the process by which living organisms convert inorganic carbon (particularly carbon dioxide) to organic compounds.
