Application

Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP) is a component of the Calvin cycle that is metabolized into glycerate 3-phosphate (G3P) by the enzyme ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (RuBisCO). RuBP is used to identify, differentiate and characterize ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase(s)/oxygenase(s) (RuBisCO).

Ribose-1,5-bisphosphate isomerase (R15Pi) is a novel enzyme recently identified as a member of an AMP metabolic pathway in archaea. The enzyme converts d-ribose 1,5-bisphosphate into ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate, providing the substrate for archaeal ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenases. We here report the crystal structures

Phosphofructokinase (EC 2.7.1.11) is a major enzyme of the glycolytic pathway, catalyzing the conversion of fructose 6-phosphate to fructose 1,6-bisphosphate. In this study, we demonstrated the effect of ribose 1,5-bisphosphate on phosphofructokinase purified from rat kidney cortex. Ribose 1,5-bisphosphate relieved
