Metabolism of Carbon in Photosynthesis 2x10 About 11 tons of biomass is produced per year, sustained by the ATP and NADPH produced during the photochemical step in photosynthesis. The formation of organic molecules occurs in the setting of CO 2, catalyzed by an enzyme called Ribolose Bisphosphate Carboxylase / oxygenase (Rubisco). The Rubisco aims to catalyze the fixation of CO 2 and then trigger various reactions that generate carbohydrates, proteins and lipids that hold the plants alive and demaisseres. It is a bifunctional enzyme catalyzing both carboxylation and oxygenation of its substrate called the pentose ribulose-1 ,5-bisphosphate (RuBP). The gases O 2 and CO 2 vie with each other for the same active epigenetics site of Rubisco, reacting with RuBP.
Starting from the resulting compound of carboxylation (3-phosphoglycerate, starts a cycle of reactions that produce carbohydrates epigenetics and simultaneously regenerating pentose reacts with CO 2 to RuBP. Such is known as the Calvin-Benson cycle or cycle C3.
Formed by the oxygenase function epigenetics of Rubisco, the phosphoglycolate epigenetics can not be used in cycle C3. His case follows epigenetics another path, the path C2. Since the 2-phosphoglycolate is metabolized by O 2 consumption and CO 2 already fixed. The route is known as Via C2 photorespiratory.
- The algae were exposed to standard conditions of light and CO 2 so that photosynthesis reached epigenetics steady state. epigenetics For a brief period epigenetics of time the 14 CO 2 was supplied to the algae.
After reduction of NADP + to NADPH in the acyclic photophosphorylation and phosphorylation of ADP + Pi to ATP in the acyclic or cyclic photophosphorylation, the CO2 combines with a pentose-ribulose diphosphate (RUDP) yielding an intermediate, unstable compound, with six carbons. Due to its instability, this compound yields two molecules of immediately phosphoglycerate consisting of 3 carbons. These two molecules are phosphorylated by ATP and subsequently reduced by NADPH dependent from the phase of the light. These reactions form the fosfoglicérico aldehyde. For every 12 molecules of PGAL formed, 10 are used to regenerate ribulose (doing so again after this phosphorylation by 6 ATPs, the cycle at the initial stage). Two molecules are used to form organic compounds such as carbohydrates. It is necessary to form a glucose molecule, this cycle is repeated six times. To the credit of one molecule of glucose is no need to six molecules of CO 2, eighteen epigenetics ATP (three per cycle) and twelve NADPH (two per cycle).
