Photorespiratory metabolism is essential for plants to maintain functional photosynthesis in
an oxygen‐containing environment. Because the oxygenation reaction of Rubisco is …

Plant responses to rising atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations, together with
projected variations in temperature and precipitation will determine future agricultural …

Rubisco catalyses the carboxylation of ribulose‐1, 5‐bisphosphate (RuBP), enabling net
CO2 assimilation in photosynthesis. The properties and regulation of R ubisco are not …

Plants and photosynthetic organisms have a remarkably inefficient enzyme named Rubisco
that fixes atmospheric CO2 into organic compounds. Understanding how Rubisco has …

Rubisco is the primary carboxylase of the Calvin cycle, the most abundant enzyme in the
biosphere, and one of the best-characterized enzymes. On the basis of correlations between …

Background Drought is one of the major factors limiting global maize production. Exposure
to long-term drought conditions inhibits growth and leads to yield losses. Although several …

Many photosynthetic species have evolved CO2-concentrating mechanisms (CCMs) to
improve the efficiency of CO2 assimilation by Rubisco and reduce the negative impacts of …

Rubisco is the primary entry point for carbon into the biosphere. However, rubisco is widely
regarded as inefficient leading many to question whether the enzyme can adapt to become …

RuBisCO‐catalyzed CO2 fixation is the main source of organic carbon in the biosphere. This
enzyme is present in all domains of life in different forms (III, II, and I) and its origin goes back …

While marine phytoplankton rival plants in their contribution to global primary productivity,
our understanding of their photosynthesis remains rudimentary. In particular, the kinetic …
