CO2 fixation
CO2 + RuBP (catalysed by RuBisCo)
RuBP is inorganic. GP is organic.
GP = glycerate 3 phosphate
Reduction
reduced NADPH provides H to reduce GP.
Reduction forms Triose phosphate (TP)
TP=forms glucose and recycled to form RuBP
regeneration
RuBP regenerated (Ribulose bisphosphate)
uses of triose phosphate
glucose: poly/disaccharides
acetyl coA → kreb cycle —> AA
nucleotides —> nucleic acids
glycerol + fatty acid (coA) —> lipids.
