Calvin cycle

edit

The Calvin cycle has thirteen reactions catalyzed by eleven enzymes. It shares five enzymes with gluconeogenesis and three with the pentose phosphate pathway. The remaining three enzymes are largely exclusive to the Calvin cycle. The characteristic enzyme of the Calvin cycle, rubisco, catalyzes the carboxylation of ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP). Rubisco also catalyzes a fourteenth reaction, the oxygenation of RuBP, initiating photorespiration which bleeds carbon and energy from the cycle and reduces its efficiency. The Calvin cycle maintains a hexose phosphate pool, a pentose phosphate pool, and a triose phosphate pool.

The Calvin cycle is autocatalytic because it can bootstrap itself from just triose phosphate, carbon dioxide, NADPH, and ATP. Autocatalysis typical of autotrophic carbon fixation pathways. The Calvin cycle can be divided, for convenience, into three phases.

Carboxylation phase

edit

1, 1a. rubisco (EC 4.1.1.39)

RuBP + CO2 + H2O --> 2(3-PGA)
RuBP + O2 --> 3-PGA + 2-phosphoglycolate

Reduction phase

edit

The reduction phase reduces 3-PGA to GAP, contributes GAP and DHAP to the triose phosphate pool, and contributes fructose 6-phosphate to the hexose phosphate pool. The reduction phase is just gluconeogenesis.

2. phosphoglycerate kinase (EC 2.7.2.3)

3-PGA + ATP <-> 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate + ADP

3. glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.13) and (EC 1.2.1.59)

1,3-bisphosphoglycerate + NADPH + H(+) <-> GAP + NADP(+) + Pi

3a. glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.12)

1,3-bisphosphoglycerate + NADH + H(+) <-> GAP + NAD(+) + Pi

4. triose-phosphate isomerase (EC 5.3.1.1)

GAP <-> DHAP

5. fructose-bisphosphate aldolase (EC 4.1.2.13)

DHAP + GAP <-> fructose 1,6-bisphosphate

6. fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase (EC 3.1.3.11)

fructose 1,6-bisphosphate + H2O --> fructose 6-phosphate + Pi

Regeneration phase

edit

The regeneration phase uses fructose 6-phosphate and triose phosphate to regenerate RuBP, and contributes xylulose 5-phosphate, ribose 5-phosphate, and ribulose 5-phosphate to the pentose phosphate pool.

7. transketolase (EC 2.2.1.1)

GAP + fructose 6-phosphate <-> xylulose 5-phosphate + erythrose 4-phosphate

8. fructose-bisphosphate aldolase (EC 4.1.2.13)

DHAP + erythrose 4-phosphate <-> sedoheptulose 1,7-bisphosphate

9. sedoheptulose-bisphosphatase (EC 3.1.3.37)

sedoheptulose 1,7-bisphosphate + H2O --> sedoheptulose 7-phosphate + Pi

10. transketolase (EC 2.2.1.1)

GAP + sedoheptulose 7-phosphate <-> xylulose 5-phosphate + ribose 5-phosphate

11. ribulose-phosphate 3-epimerase (EC 5.1.3.1)

xylulose 5-phosphate <-> ribulose 5-phosphate

12. ribose-5-phosphate isomerase (EC 5.3.1.6)

ribose 5-phosphate <-> ribulose 5-phosphate

13. phosphoribulokinase (EC 2.7.1.19)

ribulose 5-phosphate + ATP --> RuBP + ADP

Reactions

Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (NADP+) (phosphorylating) catalyzes

GAP + NADP+ + Pi ⇌ 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate + NADPH + H+

In the Calvin cycle

RuBP + CO2 + H2O → 2(3-PG)
3-PG + ATP ⇌ 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate + ADP
1,3-bisphosphoglycerate + NADPH + H+ ⇌ GAP + NADP+ + Pi

Triose-phosphate isomerase maintains DHAP and GAP in near equilibrium, producing the mixture called triose phosphate (TP)

GAP ⇌ DHAP
