Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase oxygenase – RuBisCO (RBCO) catalyzes the first step in carbon fixation, and it is the most abundant protein on earth. RBCO can either carboxylate or oxygenate ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate (RUBP) with CO2 or O2, respectively. RBCO from flowering plants usually consists of eight large subunits and eight small subunits. 2-carboxylarabinitol-1,5-bisphosphate (2-CABP) is an inhibitor of RCBO. Some additional details can be found in Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase.

Quaternery Structure

The Rubisco is shown in spacefill with its 8 large subunits in shades of blue and and its 8 small subunits in shades of yellow. The large subunits are arranged in head-to-toe pairs like staves in a barrel and the small subunits are arranged at the ends of the barrel. The large subunits contain the active sites and the function of the small subunits is not understood.

Large Subunit Structure

(under construction)

Here is an isolated . Each subunit has a large C-terminal lobe and a small N-terminal lobe, and the subunits are arranged head-to-toe (antiparallel) in the pair. are located in the interface of the large subunit pair. The subunits are shown in cartoon with one shown in the secondary structure color scheme. Each active site is occupied by RUBP, which is shown in CPK spacefill. Here is a showing that both lobes contain alpha helices (pink) and beta strands (yellow). The large lobe is dominated by an , which contributes most of the residues in the active site.

Active Site Structure

(under construction)

The active site is formed by an α-β barrel, which comprises the C-terminal lobe of the large subunit. Some additional residues are contributed by the N-terminal lobe of the adjacent subunit. Here is an , , and here is the α-β barrel of that subunit.
