Linked rubisco subunits can assemble into functional oligomers without impeding catalytic performance*

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Spencer M. Whitney from the Spencer MWhitney, and Robert E. Sharwood From the Molecular Plant Physiology, Research School of Biological Sciences, Australian National University, P. O. Box, Canberra, Australian Capital Territory, Australia Although transgenic manipulation in higher plants of the catalytic large subunit (L) of the photosynthetic CO2-fixing enzyme ribulose, bisphospahte carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco) is now possible, the manipulation of its cognate small subunit (S) is frustrated by the nuclear location of its multiple gene copies. To examine whether L and S can be engineered simultaneously by fusing them together, the subunits from Synechococcus , Rubisco . . .
