General annotation (Comments)

Function

RuBisCO catalyzes two reactions: the carboxylation of D-ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate, the primary event in carbon dioxide fixation, as well as the oxidative fragmentation of the pentose substrate in the photorespiration process. Both reactions occur simultaneously and in competition at the same active site. HAMAP MF_01338

Catalytic activity

2 3-phospho-D-glycerate + 2 H+ = D-ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate + CO2 + H2O. HAMAP MF_01338

3-phospho-D-glycerate + 2-phosphoglycolate = D-ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate + O2. HAMAP MF_01338

Cofactor

Binds 1 magnesium ion per subunit. HAMAP MF_01338

Subunit structure

Heterohexadecamer of 8 large chains and 8 small chains; disulfide-linked. The disulfide link is formed within the large subunit homodimers. HAMAP MF_01338

Subcellular location

Plastidchloroplast HAMAP MF_01338.

Post-translational modification

The disulfide bond which can form between Cys-247 in the large chain dimeric partners within the hexadecamer appears to be associated with oxidative stress and protein turnover By similarity. The disulfide bonds reported in 3RUB and 4RUB may be the result of oxidation during crystallization. HAMAP MF_01338

Miscellaneous

The basic functional RuBisCO is composed of a large chain homodimer in a "head-to-tail" conformation. In form I RuBisCO this homodimer is arranged in a barrel-like tetramer with the small subunits forming a tetrameric "cap" on each end of the "barrel". HAMAP MF_01338

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the RuBisCO large chain family. Type I subfamily.
