Question : Name the two important enzyemes of C_(3) and C_(4) pathway, respectively ? What important role do they play in fixing CO_(2) ? |
|
Answer» Solution :In `C_(3)` plants, RuBP CARBOXYLASE and oxygenase enzymes are present which combine with5C RuBP and forms PGA which is the first permanent/stable product of `C_(3)` pathway. `5C RUuBP + CO_(2) overset(RuBisCO)rarr 2PGA` In `C_(4)` CYCLE (pathway), PEP carboxylase enzyme is present. That fixes `CO_(2)` and forms 4C Oxalo acetic acid that is a first stable/permanent product of `C_(2)` pathway `PEP + CO_(2) overset(PEPcase)rarr OA A` |
