== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/RBCX_ANASC RBCX_ANASC] An RbcL-specific chaperone. The central cleft of the RbcX homodimer (RbcX2) binds the C-terminus of an RbcL monomer, stabilizing the C-terminus and probably preventing its reassociation with chaperonin GroEL-ES. At the same time the peripheral region of RbcX2 binds a second RbcL monomer, bridging the RbcL homodimers in the correct orientation. The RbcX2(2)-bound RbcL dimers then assemble into the RbcL8 core (RbcL8-(RbcX2)8). RbcS binding triggers the release of RbcX2 (PubMed:20075914, PubMed:21765418).[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00855]<ref>PMID:20075914</ref> <ref>PMID:21765418</ref>   Required for optimal reconstitution of RuBisCO upon expression of rbcL-rbcS subunits in E.coli (PubMed:9171433).<ref>PMID:9171433</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
After folding, many proteins must assemble into oligomeric complexes to become biologically active. Here we describe the role of RbcX as an assembly chaperone of ribulose-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco), the enzyme responsible for the fixation of atmospheric carbon dioxide. In cyanobacteria and plants, Rubisco is an approximately 520 kDa complex composed of eight large subunits (RbcL) and eight small subunits (RbcS). We found that cyanobacterial RbcX functions downstream of chaperonin-mediated RbcL folding in promoting the formation of RbcL(8) core complexes. Structural analysis revealed that the 15 kDa RbcX forms a homodimer with two cooperating RbcL-binding regions. A central cleft specifically binds the exposed C-terminal peptide of RbcL subunits, enabling a peripheral surface of RbcX to mediate RbcL(8) assembly. Due to the dynamic nature of these interactions, RbcX is readily displaced from RbcL(8) complexes by RbcS, producing the active enzyme. The strategies employed by RbcX in achieving substrate specificity and efficient product release may be generally relevant in assisted assembly reactions.
