Structure of Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase from wheat
| ||||||||||||
Structural highlights
FunctionRBL_WHEAT RuBisCO catalyzes two reactions: the carboxylation of D-ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate, the primary event in carbon dioxide fixation, as well as the oxidative fragmentation of the pentose substrate in the photorespiration process (PubMed:2928307). Both reactions occur simultaneously and in competition at the same active site.[1] See AlsoReferences | ||||||||||||||||||||
