When the system works, RuBisCO catalyzes the reaction of that CO 2 with a five-carbon sugar called ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP) as one part of a catalytic cycle called the Calvin-Benson cycle.

During photosynthesis, an enzyme called rubisco catalyzes a key reaction - the incorporation of carbon dioxide into organic ...

Some plants can photosynthesise using nightglow, traditionally comprising moonlight, starlight and the light reflected from ...

In a normal photosynthesis reaction, LH2 absorbs a photon and passes its energy to another LH2 complex, and then another, like a game of hot potato.
