How many carbon atoms are in a molecule of rubp?

Answers

Answered by TaeKookSugaJinRMJIM

There are FIVE (5) carbon atoms in a molecule of (RUBP)

RuBP. RuBP (ribulose 1,5-biphosphate) is a five-carbon sugar which reacts with CO2 in the first step of the Calvin cycle for fixing carbon in photosynthetic systems. That reaction is catalyzed by the large enzyme rubisco .

skr65892p68co6: but it is said that RUBISCO possess 6 carbon atoms

TaeKookSugaJinRMJIM: YES I ALSO WRITTEN SIX

skr65892p68co6: RUBISCO is the enzyme that catalyses the the reaction,there is difference between RUBP and RUBISCO

TaeKookSugaJinRMJIM: OOKK DEAR
