Rubisco (1AA1) Ribbon model

3D Model

The enzyme Rubisco (Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase) helps turn Ribulate 1,5-bisphosphate, carbon dioxide, and water into 3-Phosphoglycerate in the Calvin Cycle part of photosynthesis. Structural data from “Activated spinach Rubisco in complex with the product 3-Phophoglycerate” from Taylor and Andersson (1997) accessed using the Protein Data Bank http://www.rcsb.org/ and the ePMV pluggin in Cinema 4D.
