Rubisco (Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase oxygenase) EC 4.1.1.39, quite likely the most frequently found enzyme of the world[1], appears in plants as well as bacteria. It simplifies the first step in the Calvin-Benson-bassham-cycle by a condensation reaction, where inorganic carbon dioxide binds in catalysis to Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate. The enzyme, a hexadecamer with the molecular mass of 550 kDa, consists of 16 subunits (L8S8) which are divided into 8 large 50 – 55 kDa subunits and 8 small 12 – 18 kDa subunits. The genes which encode for the large subunits are located in the chloroplast whereas the genes for the small subunits are located in the nucleus. Rubisco not only catalyze the carbon fixation, it also has an oxygenase reaction. These two reactions are in competition to each other.
