After being absorbed through the stomata, carbon dioxide attaches to Ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP), an organic molecule that "kickstarts" a part of photosynthesis called the Calvin cycle.

RuBisCO is a crucial enzyme in photosynthesis, found in the Calvin cycle. RuBisCO is involved in carbon fixation and catalyses the reaction between RuBP and carbon dioxide (CO₂). C3, C4 and CAM plants ...

The twospotted spider mite Tetranychus urticae Koch is a common pest on soybean plants. To clarify plant-arthropod interaction on mite-soybean system, leaf fluorescence, photosynthetic responses to ...

In this case, the enzyme acts on the molecule Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate, or RuBP. As for the reaction, you may have guessed that carbon fixation involves the addition of either carbon dioxide or ...

What we found was completely unexpected. “The CsoSCA enzyme dances to the tune of another molecule called RuBP, which activates it like a switch. “Think of photosynthesis like making a sandwich.

Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP) carboxylase-oxygenase (Rubisco) enzyme is the limiting step of photosynthetic carbon fixation, and its activation is regulated by its co-evolved chaperone, Rubisco ...

Our climate is rapidly changing, and the impact is felt around the world. To understand how we can protect our planet for future generations to come, Essex researchers are at the forefront of studying ...

The increase in the transcript abundance of Calvin cycle genes led to the promotion of RuBP carboxylation and regeneration. Meanwhile, silencing of these Calvin cycle genes resulted in the decrease of ...
