The enzyme RuBisCO catalyses the joining of CO₂ to which molecule?

Question

Accepted Answer

C. RuBP, a 5-carbon sugar

RuBisCO catalyses the carboxylation of RuBP: CO₂ + RuBP
→ unstable 6-carbon → 2 × 3-PGA.
The first stable step of carbon fixation in C3 plants.
G3P is the downstream reduction product
glucose is the eventual exit product
ATP is energy currency.

Answer

glucose, the final product

Answer

G3P (glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate)

Answer

ATP, the energy currency
