Molecular mechanism of Rubisco activase: Dynamic assembly and Rubisco remodeling [PDF]
Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP) carboxylase-oxygenase (Rubisco) enzyme is the limiting step of photosynthetic carbon fixation, and its activation is regulated by its co-evolved chaperone, Rubisco activase (Rca). Rca removes the intrinsic sugar phosphate

Identification of two bZIP transcription factors interacting with the promoter of soybean Rubisco activase gene (GmRCAα) [PDF]
Rubisco activase (RCA), a key photosynthetic protein, catalyses the activation of Rubisco and thus plays an important role in photosynthesis. Although the RCA gene has been characterized in a variety of species, the molecular mechanism regulating its ...

Two cowpea Rubisco activase isoforms for crop thermotolerance [PDF]
Summary A vital crop for sub‐Saharan Africa, cowpea productivity, is threatened by climate change, including increased heatwave intensity, duration and frequency. Rubisco activase (Rca) is a key molecular chaperone that maintains Rubisco activity and, due to its thermal sensitivity, is a key target for improving crop climate resilience.

Changes in PEP Carboxylase, Rubisco and Rubisco activase mRNA levels from maize (Zea mays) exposed to a chronic ozone stress [PDF]
We quantified the ozone impact on levels of Zea mays L. cv. Chambord mRNAs encoding C4-phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (C4-PEPc), ribulose-l,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase small and large subunits (Rubisco-SSU and Rubisco-LSU, respectively) and ...

Cloning and expression analysis of Rubisco activase genes in Carya cathayensis [PDF]
Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco) is a key enzyme involved in CO2 assimilation during photosynthesis. Rubisco activation depends on the activity of Rubisco activase (RCA). We performed 3′/5′ rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE)

Molecular adaptation during adaptive radiation in the Hawaiian endemic genus Schiedea. [PDF]
Background"Explosive" adaptive radiations on islands remain one of the most puzzling evolutionary phenomena. The rate of phenotypic and ecological adaptations is extremely fast during such events, suggesting that many genes may be under fairly strong ...

Immunogold localization of Rubisco and Rubisco activase in leaves of rice
The enzymes of Rubisco and Rubisco activase were localized using immunogold-labeled method and electron microscope techniques. The results showed that Rubisco was mainly located in choloroplast, Rubisco activase, however, specially labeled both in ...

Cyanobacterial carboxysomes contain an unique rubisco‐activase‐like protein [PDF]
Summary In plants, rubisco activase (Rca) regulates rubisco by removing inhibitory molecules such as ribulose‐1,5‐bisphosphate (RuBP). In cyanobacteria, a homologous protein (activase‐like cyanobacterial protein, ALC), contains a distinctive C‐terminal fusion resembling the small‐subunit of rubisco.
