Abstract: | The specificity factors for ribulose 1, 5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase(rubisco) from six species of photosynthetic organisms are compared.The values were determined by measuring the oxygen uptake duringthe total consumption of ribulose-P2 in the presence of variousconcentrations of O2 and CO2. The specificity factors determinedin this way were similar to values previously published; smallbut significant differences were found between the specificityfactors of rubisco from C3 higher plant species. Key words: Specificity factor, total consumption, partitioning, carboxylase oxygenase ratios, ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase, rubisco |
