MeSH Heading: Ribulose-Bisphosphate Carboxylase
Tree Number(s): D08.811.520.224.125.800; D12.776.765.199.499
Unique ID: D012273
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D012273
Scope Note: A carboxy-lyase that plays a key role in photosynthetic carbon assimilation in the CALVIN-BENSON CYCLE by catalyzing the formation of 3-phosphoglycerate from ribulose 1,5-biphosphate and CARBON DIOXIDE. It can also utilize OXYGEN as a substrate to catalyze the synthesis of 2-phosphoglycolate and 3-phosphoglycerate in a process referred to as photorespiration.
Entry Term(s): 1,5-Biphosphate Carboxylase-Oxygenase; Carboxydismutase; Ribulose Biphosphate Carboxylase; Ribulose Biphosphate Carboxylase-Oxygenase; Ribulose Bisphosphate Carboxylase; Ribulose Diphosphate Carboxylase; Ribulose-1,5-Biphosphate Carboxylase; Ribulose-1,5-Biphosphate Carboxylase-Oxygenase; Ribulose-1,5-Bisphosphate Carboxylase Small-Subunit; Ribulose-Bisphosphate Carboxylase Large Subunit; Ribulose-Bisphosphate Carboxylase Small Subunit; Ribulosebiphosphate Carboxylase; Rubisco; Rubisco Small Subunit
