Question

explain enzyme catalysed carboxylation reaction with mechanism

Answer 1

Answer:

The key chemical step in which carbon dioxide is 'fixed' (in other words, condensed with an existing organic molecule) is called a carboxylation reaction. It is catalyzed by the enzyme ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase, commonly known as Rubisco, in the 'Calvin cycle' of carbon fixation
