Description

Application

Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP) is a component of the Calvin cycle that is metabolized into glycerate 3-phosphate (G3P) by the enzyme ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (RuBisCO). RuBP is used to identify, differentiate and characterize ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase(s)/oxygenase(s) (RuBisCO).
