The enzyme responsible for primary carboxylation in C3 plants is

Question

The enzyme responsible for primary carboxylation in C3 plants is (A) Succinic dehydrogenase (B) RuBP carboxylase oxygenase (C) Hexokinase (D) Pyruvate carboxylase

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

RuBP carboxylose enzyme catalyses the primary carboxylation reaction in which CO2 combines with RuBP (Ribulose bisphosphate) to form 2 molecules of 3 PGA (Phosphoglyceric acid).

Q. The enzyme responsible for primary carboxylation in $C_{3}$ plants is

Succinic dehydrogenase

RuBP carboxylase oxygenase

Hexokinase

Pyruvate carboxylase

PEP carboxylase

RuBP carboxylose enzyme catalyses the primary carboxylation reaction in which $C O_{2}$ combines with RuBP (Ribulose bisphosphate) to form $2$ molecules of $3$ PGA (Phosphoglyceric acid).
