Biochemical mechanisms driving rapid fluxes in C4 photosynthesis
Biochemical mechanisms driving rapid fluxes in C4 photosynthesis Biochemical mechanisms driving... Modeling Plant growth RNA-seq Enzyme measurements Quantum yield measurements Data availability Material and Methods References Sufficient flux through pathways is critical to their function within the metabolic network. A high flux cycle called C4 photosynthesis evolved in some plants to combat the slow speed and low specificity of the plants carbon fixation enzyme Rubisco1. In these plants, flux through the C4 photosynthetic cycle eclipses flux through Rubisco making it the highest flux in planta2,3. Engineering efforts are underway ...
