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

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 …

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 …

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 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 …

Carbon fixation is the process by which CO2 is incorporated into organic compounds. In
modern agriculture in which water, light, and nutrients can be abundant, carbon fixation …

Human utilization of the mulberry–silkworm interaction started at least 5,000 years ago and
greatly influenced world history through the Silk Road. Complementing the silkworm …

Ribulose-1, 5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco) is the major enzyme
assimilating CO2 into the biosphere. At the same time Rubisco is an extremely inefficient …

Organellar DNA sequences are widely used in evolutionary and population genetic studies,
however, the conservative nature of chloroplast gene and genome evolution often limits …

Natural genetic variation in plant photosynthesis is a largely unexplored and as a result an
underused genetic resource for crop improvement. Numerous studies show genetic …
