Light independent (dark rxn) CO2-->(CH2O)NADPH & ATP
|
Calvin cycle stages
|
Carbon FixationReductive stageCycle regeneration
|
Stage 1Carbon fixation enzymeHydrolysis of unstable product to make..
|
Rubisco: Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxyoxygenase 2 molecules of 3-phosphoglycerate
|
Rubisco activity requiresMg held in place how
|
Mg & CO2 By (-) charges of ASP/GLU
|
Primary function of rubisco
|
Catalyzes carbon fixation
|
Inefficient intermediate
|
2-phosphoglycolate
|
Stage 23-phosphoglycerate gets..enzymes involvedall happens where?
|
Phosphorylated & reduced to glyceraldehyde-3-phosG3PD, Aldolase & fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase in stroma
|
Stage 3produced...enzymes
|
5-C sugarTransketoalase & aldolase
|
Overall rxn:
|
F-6-P+2GAP+1DHAP+3ATP-->3-ribulose-5-P+3ADP
|
To produce 1 molecule of glucose...Cost of single glucose
|
Must complete 2 rounds of calvin cycle54 ATP equivalents (18 ATP & 12NADPH)
